The date was finalised during a meeting between the Sharif brothers in London.

"Nawaz Sharif will reach Pakistan on October 21 and will lead the election campaign," the former prime minister told a private news channel.

It is pertinent to mention here that Nawaz has been living in London since November 2019 for medical treatment after the Lahore High Court (LHC) allowed him a four-week reprieve.

He was serving seven-year imprisonment in the Kot Lakhpat Jail in Lahore in the Al-Azizia corruption case before his departure to London on medical grounds.
