Federal Minister for Overseas Pakistanis and Pakistan Muslim League-Functional (PML-F) Sindh President Pir Sadruddin Shah Rashdi has called upon Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan to show flexibility in his stance and accept the offer for dialogue extended by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to end political uncertainty in the country.
Talking to APP on Sunday, he said Imran Khan should positively respond to talks’ offer by the prime minister as confrontation would not be in the interest of anyone. The doors for reconciliation were not closed in politics, he stressed.
He also urged the PTI chief to cancel the party’s march scheduled for 14th of August in the national interest because the country was in a state of war and all the political parties needed to demonstrate harmony and boost the morale of the security forces which were fighting against terrorists in the tribal areas.
The PML-F leader hailed the government’s move to hold the national security conference. He also described the briefing at the conference on ongoing operation Zarb-e-Azb against terrorists in North Waziristan Agency as a positive development.
He expressed concerns that political uncertainty was disrupting development activities, and said it might also harm country’s economy. Pir Sadruddin urged all the political forces to join hands and come forward to lessen the difficulties of the internally displaced persons (IDPs).
