ISLAMABAD: Defense Minister Khawaja Asif said that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz has no favourite name for Army Chief’s appointment and consultation will take place after November 19.

Speaking with journalists outside Parliament, he while asking about reports of deadlock between PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif and former President Asif Ali Zardari over name of next Army Chief said that consultation over appointment has not yet been held and then how will be a deadlock.

“Consultation would take place after November 19 over names sent by Army,” Khawaja said. Taking a jibe at PTI Chief Imran Khan, Asif said that legal action should be taken on Imran Khan’s recent statements because he is playing with national interest for his personal interest.
