Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has firmly rejected an offer by Rana Sanaullah, Prime Minister’s Adviser on Political and Public Affairs, for a grand dialogue, asserting that any talks must involve parties with genuine authority and power.
In a statement made during a private TV Channel program, PTI’s Information Secretary Rauf Hassan dismissed the proposal, questioning the legitimacy of Sanaullah and Shehbaz Sharif as representatives for negotiation.
Hassan emphasized that PTI would only engage in dialogue with those possessing real decision-making power, dismissing Sanaullah and Sharif as mere proxies lacking substantive authority.
Sanaullah had earlier proposed a Grand Dialogue, suggesting the involvement of various institutions and advocating for the inclusion of individuals allegedly falsely accused and imprisoned. However, PTI rebuffed these overtures, asserting that talks should be conducted on terms that prioritize genuine authority and accountability.
