It is believed that the prime minister will also hold consultations with the political leaders on the caretaker set-up over dinner.
The dinner comes a day after the PM actively started contacting leaders of allied parties on the issue of the caretaker prime minister’s appointment.
PM Sharif on Wednesday contacted former president Asif Ali Zardari and PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif.
The political bigwigs held consultations on the proposed names for the caretaker prime minister and the caretaker set-up. They agreed to complete the process of appointing the caretaker prime minister according to the Constitution and the law.
Opposition leader in the National Assembly Raja Riaz also held consultations with opposition parties on the issue.
