The federal cabinet has postponed its decision on imposing a ban on Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and invoking Article 6 against PTI founder Imran Khan, ex-president Dr Arif Alvi, and former deputy NA speaker Qasim Suri.
According to sources, the government will consult with the Pakistan People’s Party and other coalition parties before making a decision.
Sources said that the matter regarding ban on PTI will be presented in the cabinet meeting after the consultation.
Chairing a meeting of the federal cabinet in Islamabad today, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif regretted the propaganda campaign unleashed by PTI against the armed forces of Pakistan, which he said, will not be tolerated at all.
He emphasized the need to unite against such malicious campaigns, stressing that our armed forces have made immense sacrifices in the fight against terrorism to ensure peace and stability in the country.
