Well placed sources told The News here on Monday that Nawaz Sharif will be staying in the Block A of Punjab House and during his stay he will discuss political developments with his aides and other political leaders. The sources said that Nawaz Sharif has decided to jump in fray for a political battle to take his party in the general elections of next year. He will also plan to visit Lahore and other cities since large number of PML-N workers have approached him for his visit to their respective areas.
