[FOOLS_NIGHTMARE]

• Committee includes Pervez Khattak, Ejaz Chaudhary, Mian Mehmood ur Rashid.
• Asad Umar says dialogue will take place to break free from current politician issues.
• JI emir held meetings with PTI, PDM to initiate talks a day earlier.

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has formed a three-member committee that would hold negotiations with Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) after the latter announced a fresh bid to initiate talks between the government and the Imran Khan-led party due to the worsening economic and political situation in the cash-strapped country.

Secretary General Asad Umar on Sunday made the announcement on Twitter, saying that the decision came after a meeting with PTI Chairman Imran Khan and JI Emir Sirajul Haq to break free from the current issues.

Issuing a notification in this regard, Umar said that the committee includes former chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pervez Khattak, PTI Senator Ejaz Ahmad Chaudhary and former Punjab minister Mian Mehmood ur Rashid.

A day earlier, the JI emir initiated efforts to bring the PTI and the ruling alliance to the negotiation table by holding separate meetings with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and the PTI chief.

During his meeting with the PM, the current political situation in the country and the judicial crisis were discussed. The leaders agreed that issues should be resolved with collective wisdom.

Sources privy to the matter said that the meetings remained highly successful as both sides agreed to sit at the negotiating table to end the months-long confrontation, which badly affected the country's economy and the masses.

The PTI chief and his party have been holding protests since their ouster in April last year and are demanding early elections, which the government has persistently denied.

The PTI dissolved Punjab and KP assemblies in its bid to force the government to hold countrywide elections, but the Shehbaz-led administration did not budge.

But the situation took a turn when the Supreme Court ordered holding the polls in Punjab on May 14. However, the parliament rejected the verdict, leading the judiciary and government to lock horns.

“The JI had decided to contact the political parties to build a consensus for holding elections on the same day,” he added. “The country cannot afford any chaos at this time,” confirmed JI Secretary Information Qaisar Sharif citing Haq.

Both sides agreed to continue meetings and include other parties too in the process, the JI leader added.

He maintained that the JI delegation also met the PTI chairman at his Zaman Park residence during which the latter appreciated the former’s efforts.

The two sides agreed to continue contact after Eid ul Fitr.

Ameer Siraj ul Haq should be made aware as to how he is referred to as pig, terrorist and a scum by PTI fans on social media. Ameer Sahab should carry some respect for himself.

Sensible approach, keep negotiation doors open to settle election date.

What happened to the PPP led negotiations?

 

[Goenitz]

Thanx God. IK shouldn't agree on a date later than 14th May, at least in Punjab

I don't think that Pml n will agree to negotiate as they are the biggest losers today if elections happen even after a year.
Although I hate to say it but some third party intervention is becoming more and more likely if they have some sanity left.

The phrase 'Haath do to baazu kha jaen gay' is an idiomatic expression in Urdu and Hindi, which literally translates to 'if you give your hand, your arm will be eaten.' Figuratively, it means that giving someone a small concession may encourage them to take further advantage and may ultimately lead to unfavorable outcomes.

Looking at the historical trends in Pakistan, elections have often taken years to happen. If the Pakistani establishment's request for incremental delays in the election process is accepted, it could be seen as a concession that might embolden them to further exploit their position. This could ultimately lead to a successful implementation of their strategy, which would be a devastating outcome for PTI's struggle. In such a scenario, the phrase 'Innalillahe wa inna elehi rajion' would be a fitting expression.

Siraj-ul-Haq is a lanti munafiq, i wonder why would PTI want anything to do with this scum of the earth. He has literally highjacked JI.

Sometimes you need to setup pawns to capture knights and the king.

JI is still better than the fazlu group and PPP.

BY pitching JI against other groups, IK is giving some weight and recognition to the JI as a broker.

Not sure how much impact will this have.
