They also discussed government’ measures for the solution of public issues.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Thursday blamed the PTI for failure in talks between the government and the opposition party in three sittings, adding the ruling party was still ready to continue talks with it.
Meanwhile, PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan has rejected the prime minister’s offer for talks.
During an informal interaction with the government, Barrister Gohar said the government pulled out of negotiations.
“We had put forward only two demands: release of political prisoners and formation of judicial commissions for May 9, and November 26 events,” he said, adding that the government shut the door for talks by not accepting these demands.
