PDM govt should send 'written' invitation for APC, says Pervez Khattak

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf( PTI) leader Pervez Khattak on Saturday said that if the civil government was serious about inviting the party to the all parties conference( APC) on February 7,  also they should  shoot them a written assignation. 

  Talking to  intelligencers outside Zaman Park Lahore, the former Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chief minister said that inviting the party over a phone call wasn't the correct way. 

He asked the PDM government to give a clear policy on how the country will come out of the current quagmire.   Pervez said that the establishment is trying to remain neutral but the government doesn't want that to be.   

He said that the PTI was ready to engage with the PDM government if it gave an election date." But the government isn't serious about it," he added.  

 The  elderly PTI leader added that the PDM leaders weren't put in jail by the their government, they went to jail because of their deeds.   

The former KP CM denied the news about the absence of a forensic laboratory in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa( KP), saying the  fiefdom has a forensic laboratory.  

 PTI Vice Chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi said that on one side the government was inviting the PTI for the APC and on the other side, victimising the party's leaders.  

 Interacting with media persons in Lahore, he said if the government wanted to unite the nation, it should first stop victimisation of PTI leaders.  

 Qureshi added that the PDM's  docket isn't compatible with the  public  docket. The PDM government has  fully failed, he said.   Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif Thursday invited PTI Chairman Imran Khan to an APC aimed at chancing   results to  master the daunting  profitable and political  heads.  

 The  high minister sought to bring heads of all political parties to the table so they can join heads and figure out ways to address" important  public challenges", Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb said in a statement.  

 The assignation was allowed to be a major development as the PDM- led government and the PTI've always been at loggerheads over  nearly all  public issues since Khan's ouster from the PM Office. 

 The move comes as Pakistan faces a severe  trouble of terrorism and distressing  profitable and political situations, with no signs of respite soon.
