Earlier, PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar urged the National Assembly to allow the political dust surrounding the events of May 9 to settle, emphasising the need for dialogue and accountability.
Addressing the lower house, Barrister Gohar said, “Enough is enough! We demand a fair resolution of the injustices we have faced. This parliament must act as the platform for dialogue. We have formed a negotiation committee, which should not be mistaken as a sign of weakness.”
He warned that failure to provide a solution through dialogue would leave the party with no choice but to return to the streets for protests.
