Mr Sadiq said that PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif, Shahbaz Sharif and Maryam Nawaz Sharif have a relationship with Mr Raisani for more than 50 years and because of this Mr Nawaz has invited Mr Raisani to join PML-N.

He said Mr Raisani always talks about Pakistan as he wants to see a strong Pakistan where deprivation and difficulties of the masses are brought to an end.

Mr Sadiq said that Mr Raisani has expressed his concern over smuggling in Balochistan and said the people involved in smuggling are causing damage to the country’s economy.

He said that Mr Raisani has consulted his friends and sought time to reply to the PML-N leadership over the issue.
