“There are a score of issues to be discussed in the meeting, including the new budget and reviewing election issues with particular reference to PTI’s recent triumph in Pindi Bhattian,” said Mazari.
She said PTI chief, Imran Khan, who was on a week-long trip to the United Kingdom, will attend the joint session and then preside over the party meeting to frame the future line of action over key policy issues.

“We will listen to the presidential address and then respond accordingly”, she added.

In its latest challenge to the ruling Pakistan Muslim League- Nawaz (PML-N), PTI intends to create an uproar during the budget session, criticising the government over load-shedding, inflation and rising unemployment in the country.
