Govt still hopes for resumption of talks as PTI skips 4th round
- National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq says government’s negotiation committee will remain intact and not dissolve
National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq hoped that the government and the opposition will hold talks as the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) skipped the forth round of negotiations on Tuesday.
Addressing the media, the speaker said they were hoping that PTI would come to the meeting today and the dialogue could advance.
“But because the dialogue cannot proceed in their absence, there is no need to further speak about or continue this meeting.”

The government’s negotiation committee will remain intact and not dissolve, the NA speaker added.
