PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Khan dismissed Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's proposal for discussions as merely symbolic, according to Barrister Gohar Khan. PM Shehbaz warned that the politics of sit-ins and long marches would first target the country's economy.
Furthermore, PM Shehbaz extended a conditional offer of talks to the PTI, contingent upon the party ending its ongoing long march towards Islamabad. Barrister Gohar Khan also stated that his party has been denied a meeting with its jailed founder Imran Khan for a period of one year.
Arriving at Adiala jail on Tuesday, Barrister Gohar Khan was informed that the PTI founder’s cousin, Qasim Zaman, had been detained. Salman Akram Raja, the PTI Secretary General, declared that the long march would persist until certain matters reached a final agreement.
Asad Qaiser, a PTI leader, asserted that the government must engage with the party regarding its 'legitimate constitutional and legal demands'. The PTI leader Asad Qaiser further maintained that peaceful protest remains the party's constitutional and legal right until its demands receive acceptance.
