PTI opens up on chants against Fazlur Rehman in Pishin rally

PESHAWAR: Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) Maulana Fazalur Rehman and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Asad Qaiser agreed to continue holding talks on the political situation of the country, ARY News reported.

According to the details, both leaders had a telephone conversation and discussed the current political situation in the country. They also exchanged Eid-ul-Fitr greetings as well as discussed the political and economic situation of the country.

Asad Qaiser also expressed regret over the ‘inappropriate’ slogans raised at the Pishin public gathering, stating that such slogans hinder the relations between the two parties.

Asad Qaiser also expressed his party’s desire to expand talks with the JUI-F. Maulana Fazlur Rehman too acknowledged the need for regular talks for ‘removal’ of differences between the two parties.

The PTI leader who is currently abroad said that a strategy would be devised for the removal of these reservations upon his return to Pakistan.

Earlier on April 4, PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan hinted at joining a sit-in announced by the Moulana Fazalur Rehman-led Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazlm (JUI-F) against the government.

Speaking at ARY News programme “Khabar Meher Bukhari Kay Sath”, Barrister Gohar said that the Grand Opposition Alliance would be launching anti-government movement after Eid-ul-Fitr.

“Moulana Fazlur Rehman would also be approached to join the Grand Opposition Alliance. We and the JUI-F are in touch and hope we will be meeting as well,” Barrister Gohar added.

He said that the opposition parties’ protest would be aimed at strengthening the parliament as well as against mandate ‘theft’. “We want no mandate to be stolen in future also,” Barrister Gohar said.
