ISLAMABAD: Imran Khan, the leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), was invited by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Thursday to an all-parties conference (APC) intended to find solutions to Pakistan’s ominous economic and political challenges.
According to a statement from Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb, the prime minister wants to sit down the leaders of all political parties so they can consult one another and come up with solutions to the current predicament. On February 7, the conference is scheduled to take place in Islamabad.
She claimed that top PTI figures including former National Assembly speaker Asad Qaiser and ex-defence minister Pervez Khattak have been contacted by Federal Minister Ayaz Sadiq to participate in the upcoming moot.
The invitation is a significant development because the PDM-led administration and the PTI have historically disagreed on practically all matters of national concern, not just since Khan was removed from the PM Office but also when the roles were reversed.
