Punjab Governor Chaudhry Sarwar claimed on Saturday that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) sit-in in Islamabad will eventually end through negotiations, just as Pakistan Awami Tehreek’s did.
“We continued bilateral talks with Dr Tahirul Qadri which eventually resulted in peaceful dispersion of protesters from Islamabad and we expect the same from the PTI sit-in,” Sarwar said while speaking to reporters in Sahiwal.
He was hopeful that PTI will also negotiate with the government.
Admitting that protesting is the right of the every citizen of Pakistan, he upheld that they should be held in a constitutional manner. He also added that the protest were ill-timed and are worsening the problems of citizens.
“Protests are diverting the attention of the government from the basic problems of health and education the political parties should understand this,” the Punjab governor said.
