Hamza Shehbaz takes on 'new role' in Islamabad

PML-N leader Hamza Shehbaz has initiated his political engagement in Islamabad, meeting with a group of current and former party lawmakers at the Prime Minister's House. This marks a shift for Shehbaz, who had largely stayed out of provincial politics since his cousin, Maryam Nawaz, assumed the chief ministership of Punjab.

During the meeting, Shehbaz engaged in detailed discussions with Members of the National Assembly Saira Afzal Tarar, Jamal Shah Kakar, and Hafizur Rehman Dreshak. He also conferred with former MNA Khurram Dastgir, Murtaza Javed Abbasi, and former senator Behramand Tangi. The conversations focused on issues affecting their respective constituencies.

In addition to these political discussions, Shehbaz chaired a session dedicated to the Prime Minister's Youth Programme. The article notes his relatively low profile in Punjab's provincial politics following the PML-N's ascent to power and Maryam Nawaz's appointment as chief minister.
