A handout picture released by the Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) shows Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif talking with Pakistan army chief General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani during their meeting, in Islamabad, yesterday. Sharif was ousted in a military coup the last time he led a government, and sent into exile for eight years before making a political comeback.
