Prime Minister Zafarullah Khan Jamali has decided to appoint veteran politician Sardar Nasarullah Khan Dareshak as the chief whip, sources told NNI on Monday.
The announcement in this regard would be made on March 7 after PML president Chudhary Shujaat arrives.

Nasarullah is called as "Chacha" (Uncle) by the young parliamentarians and he is also close friend of Iqbal Harraj the father of Raza Hayat Harraj.
