PM Nawaz finally reaches Islamabad

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Thursday finally reached Islamabad after staying away from PM House for almost 60 days on account of his cardiac surgery in London and later in the wake of an infection in his leg following his return to the country.

The premier, along with his family, reached Lahore airport through a chopper from Jati Umrah. Therefrom, he flew to Islamabad through a special plane.

"Prime Minister at work during the flight to Islamabad," said PM's daughter, Maryam Nawaz Sharif, in her tweet. "Allah has been Kind."

PM Nawaz Sharif is due to preside a National Security Council meeting in Islamabad on Friday (tomorrow).

Sharif had undergone an open-heart surgery in London in May and returned to Lahore this month on the advice of his doctors after recuperating from surgery.

He was running official affairs of the country through a camp office in Lahore since his return to the country on July 9.

The premier was to arrive in Islamabad on Monday, but he could not travel after developing an infection in his leg.
