ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) leader Jahangir Tareen met with Prime Minister Imran Khan at Parliament House in Islamabad, ARY News reported.

During the meeting, the PTI leader informed PM Imran about the reservations of BNP-Mengal.

The federal ministers also meet with BNP-M delegation on the special instructions of PM Imran, said sources.

Earlier, Members of National Assembly Begum Shaheen Saifullah, Talib Hussain Nakai, Saleh Muhammad Khan, Niaz Ahmad, Haji Imtiaz Ahmad and Aurangzeb Khichi also called on PM Khan at the Parliament House in Islamabad and discussed the overall situation of the country.

A Balochistan Awami Party (BAP) delegation also met with PM Imran at Parliament House.

Minister for Defence Production Zubaida Jalal MNAs Sardar Muhammad Israr Tareen, Khalid Hussain Magsi, Ehsanullah Reki and Rubina Irfan were included in the delegation.

Special Assistant to Prime Minister Naeem-ul-Haq was also present on the occasion.

Earlier, Prime Minister Imran Khan had decided to address concerns of four junior coalition partners of the government.

Prime Minister opted to address the concerns of junior partners by meeting leaders of each of the allied parties rather than through a joint committee comprising lawmakers of the four coalition partners.

Prime Minister had separately met this month with leaders of MQM, PML-Q, Grand Democratic Alliance (GDA) and Balochistan National Party (BNP-Mengal) and assured them support and addressed their concerns.

The development comes after the four junior coalition partners of the PTI sought to constitute a joint coordination committee to get their concerns addressed and issues to avoid any misunderstanding for the sake of smooth running of the ruling alliance.
