Federal Minister for Science and Technology Fawad Chaudhry criticised on Monday the latest pictures of former premier Nawaz Sharif, which showed him dining out with friends and family in London.

In the latest photos seen on social media, Nawaz Sharif was spotted at a London restaurant with Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leaders including Ishaq Dar, Shehbaz Sharif, Hussain Nawaz and others. 

"Scenes of a meeting in the intensive care unit of a London hospital, the treatment for binge-eating is underway with sheer concentration, all patients are feeling better," the minster sarcastically wrote in his Twitter post. 

The doctors of the former prime minister have advised him to go out on walks.
