Prime Minister Imran Khan's resignation out of question: Pervaiz Khattak
Government would act in its own way if someone tried to assault on federal capital: Khattak
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Responding to opposition’s repeated demand for Prime Minister Imran Khan to step down, Defence Minister Pervaiz Khattak on Saturday clarified that the premier’s resignation is out of question.
Addressing a press conference in Islamabad, the minister once again extended offer of dialogue to the opposition parties, adding that they should not make any hue and cry afterwards.
Pervaiz Khattak said all opposition parties would be consulted on Azadi March of JUI-F. He hoped that the issues would be resolved through dialogue and government’s writ would be implemented.
Khattak, who is the head of committee formed to hold dialogue with JUI-F over Azadi March, said PTI during its sit in never closed dialogue, adding that we are democratic people and would solve issues through talks.
He said government would act in its own way if someone tried to assault on federal capital. He said JUI-F would be responsible if something happened.
He said opposition was invited for talks but they did not come that shows there agenda is something else, adding that they want to press Kashmir issue.
He said Indians are happy for this sorry state of affairs in Pakistan but government would restore its writ. He warned that interior ministry would handle the issue if they would not resolve their issues with committee.
He said the country is progressing under the leadership of PM Imran Khan and opposition knows their politics would end if PM Imran completed his 5 years term. He said such situation was also created in KP in past but they fight against it and were chosen by people once again.
He said objections on Speaker, chairman Senate are baseless. He said opposition parties are being contacted to solve the issues.
Khattak said only those people were included in the committee who understand politics and all names came with his consent.
He clarified that there would be no resignation of anyone.
Shafqat Mehmood on the occasion said the student from Madaras should not be there in sit in. He said children must not be dragged in political issues.
