Speaking to media outside the Lahore High Court (LHC), Aitzez Ahsan said that PTI had to change their stance on the Taliban issue as they were being isolated.
He further said that the pros and cons of the National Security Policy can be highlighted only when it is presented in the National Assembly.
Senator Aitezaz Ahsan, while commenting on Chaudhry Nisar’s invitation of cricket match to Taliban, said that the Federal Interior Minister should not have given such irresponsible statements.
“PTI Chairman Imran Khan plays cricket”, he added.
While commenting on the NATO supply line case, he added that the court gave decision against Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) and PTI and the two parties should respect the court’s verdict.

He urged the present day government to follow the steps of PPP government and take necessary steps for the displaced persons.
