He was talking to a delegation of party workers from various districts of the Punjab who met him.
Shehbaz said it was very heartening to know that there had been a great amount of enthusiasm among those who applied for the tickets as well as the PML-N workers.
He said it also showed the confidence of the party and its leadership based on the performance of the PML-N in the last five years, both in the Federal government as well as government in the Punjab province.
He also referred to the fact that the delivery of the PML-N had achieved widespread recognition not only in Pakistan and its people but also internationally as well.
