PTI should issue public apology
In connection with the negotiations with the PTI, Railways Minister Khawaja Saad Rafique on Sunday made it clear that there was no way to negotiate with the embattled party following the events that transpired on May 9. Speaking to media outside the Jinnah House in Lahore, Mr Rafique took a swipe at former prime minister Imran Khan over forming a seven-member committee in a bid to negotiate with the incumbent government. “Who’s going to talk to them,” he questioned.
Rafique claimed that Khan had asked his team to end negotiations with the government, which were held last month on the orders of the Supreme Court. In line with the May 9 vandalism, Rafique had urged Khan and the PTI leadership to admit their mistake and apologise to the entire nation. “They PTI should issue a public apology. What the PTI did was not under the guise of politics,” Rafique added.
