Nawaz Sharif, Pakistan’s former prime minister, is slated to resume leadership of the ruling PML-N, marking a return after seven years. Disqualified over corruption allegations in 2017, Sharif’s reinstatement follows acquittal in related cases. The decision, made at a party meeting, aims to rectify perceived injustices and reinvigorate the party under Sharif’s guidance. Amid internal discord, prominent figures have voiced criticism, straining the party’s democratic credentials. Sharif’s resurgence follows his return from exile and signals a resurgence in political influence despite failing to secure a majority in recent elections. His reinstatement underscores a complex interplay between political power and military interests in Pakistan.
