PM summons another meeting of negotiating committee over BNP withdrawal matter
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan on Friday has summoned another meeting of negotiating committee to resolve the matter of Balochistan National Party-Mengal’s (BNP) withdrawal from the government.
The committee, comprising Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi, Minister for Defence Pervez Khattak and Minister for Planning, Development and Special Initiatives Asad Umar will brief the premier over their discussion with the disgruntled BNP-M leadership. The PM will also be informed about the meeting between Senate chairman Sadiq Sanjrani and BNP chief Akhtar Mengal.
It is to be mentioned here that BNP Chief Akhtar Mengal, during National Assembly session, had announced to end coalition with PTI government.
He said that his party has waited for two years but no one has bothered to pay attention to their demands despite fully supporting the government in last budget.
Akhtar Mengal said that PTI had signed two agreements at the time of government formation after the 2018 General Elections and later during the presidential elections, but not a single point of the accord was implemented.
We will stay in the Parliament and will keep on raising the issues, he added.
