The PML-N had decided to establish contacts with all the political forces in the country in a bid to press the government to immediately announce fresh polls, they added.
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has also convened an emergent meeting of the party's central executive committee, MNAs and senators in Islamabad on Thursday (today) to take important decisions in the wake of present political situation.
