The administration has called the decision of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) to terminate the ongoing negotiations with the government “unfortunate” and asked the former ruling party to “reconsider it as the deadline of seven working days ends on January 28.”
“They [PTI] should have listened to our answers when they knocked on our door and handed over a questionnaire,” PML-N Senator Irfan Siddiqui, who is the government’s negotiation committee spokesperson, told reporters outside Parliament House on Thursday.
The comments were made soon after PTI founder Imran Khan, who is currently in prison, “called off” talks with the government because it had not set up a judicial committee in the allotted seven days.
