Islamabad: Pakistan's former prime minister Nawaz Sharif returned home on Saturday on a special flight after a four-year self-imposed exile in the UK to head his party and try to secure a record fourth term in the general elections expected to be held in January.

The 73-year-old Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo flew in from Dubai to Islamabad on the 'Umeed-e-Pakistan' chartered plane.

"Today I am going to Pakistan after 4 years and I am feeling very happy with the grace of Allah. It would be great if the situation in Pakistan was better today than it was in 2017," Nawaz Sharif said before boarding a flight from Dubai as per news agency.

Sharif's legal team will meet him to take his biometrics and submit it to the Islamabad High Court as part of the bail process approved by the court on October 19. After staying an hour or so in Islamabad, he will leave for Lahore to address a rally at Minar-e-Pakistan.
