Shehbaz to skip assembly session today 

The Opposition leader and PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif will not attend the National Assembly session today (Thursday) in which the government is going to present the mini-budget after a few minutes, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.

Sources have informed that owing to his personal engagements, the opposition leader has decided to skip the session which is likely to remain heated as the government will present its mini-budget and a bill granting autonomy to the State Bank in the session. 

However, he directed all members of the opposition parties to participate in the assembly session.
