Abbasi’s cabinet was expected to be sworn-in at the Presidency at 5:30pm Wednesday but the event is being delayed for last two days as the party failed to finalise the allocation of ministries.
PM Abbasi, Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Ishaq Dar, Chaudhry Nisar, Ahsan Iqbal, Mehtab Abbasi and Pervez Rasheed, Khawaja Saad Rafique and Khawaja Asif, along with other senior members, attended the meeting.
