NAWABSHAH: Pakistan's Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi has arrived in Nawabshah and moved from the airport to Zardari House.

A meeting between President Asif Ali Zardari and Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi is scheduled to take place, during which some key issues, including new provinces, will be discussed.

According to media reports, Naqvi has suggested conducting a referendum on the creation of new provinces, stating that people's opinions should be considered in this matter.
