Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has formally announced the end of talks with the government and dissolved the negotiation committee, citing the government’s failure to meet their demands.
A PTI delegation led by opposition leader in the National Assembly Omar Ayub Khan called on Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) Chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman at his residence in Islamabad.
The current political situation in the country was discussed in the meeting and PTI leaders invited Maulana to join the opposition grand alliance.
After the meeting, PTI leader Omar Ayub Khan announced the dissolving of the negotiating committee, saying that talks had been ended with the government.
While talking to the media, he said that the government had failed to meet PTI’s two key demands including the release of under-trial political prisoners and the formation of a judicial commission to probe the events of May 9, 2023 and Nov 26, 2026.
Omar Ayub further underscored that the government could not arrange a meeting between PTI founder Imran Khan and the negotiating team, saying that now PTI would go to the public.
