LAHORE: Chief Minister Punjab Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday said that the nation's trust inspired his brother, former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.

Nawaz departed the Punjab House early Wednesday to formally begin his journey for Lahore via the GT Road.

The decision for Nawaz Sharif to reach out to masses by travelling via GT Road was taken at a party meeting at Punjab House a couple of days ago.

The Punjab CM tweeted prayers for the safety of those participating in the Pakistan Muslim League - Nawaz's (PML-N) rally.

Shehbaz said public engagement is a fundamental right of every political party, terming it the linchpin of the democratic order and oxygen for political parties.
