According to sources, the separate meetings of both the committees regarding to devising protest strategy and a constitutional way to halt the government process of legislation would be held consecutively. 

Opposition leader Shehbaz will hold a dinner tonight in honour of opposition parties’ members in the national and provincial assemblies at the Banquet Hall of Parliament House. Both the committees will come into action even before the dinner. 

PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Asad Mehmood, Amir Haider Hoti and other parliamentary leaders of the opposition parties would participate in the dinner. 

The opposition leaders will deliberate on a joint strategy to impede government legislation process in both the upper and lower houses.
