Pakistan’s federal government has formally requested a charter of demands from the opposition party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), following the first round of talks aimed at addressing the country’s political challenges. The meeting, which took place in the National Assembly, was chaired by Speaker Sardar Ayaz Sadiq and involved representatives from both the government and PTI.
The government committee included prominent figures such as Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar, Minister Rana Tanveer Hussain, and other members, while the PTI delegation featured Asad Qaiser, Hamid Raza, and Allama Raja Nasir Abbas. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur and Opposition Leader Omar Ayub were absent due to prior commitments.
During the talks, Ayaz Sadiq emphasized the critical role of dialogue in strengthening democracy and resolving the nation’s issues. He highlighted that constructive negotiations between the government and opposition are vital for addressing Pakistan’s challenges, particularly its economic and political instability. Sadiq noted that the government and opposition must collaborate to bring about political harmony, which is essential for the country’s progress.
The next round of negotiations between the two sides is scheduled for January 2. The discussions are seen as a positive step toward resolving the political deadlock and fostering stability in Pakistan.
