This is apropos "Consensus on ToRs: Fretful coalition partners seeking to persuade PM" carried by Business Recorder on Sunday. According to it, coalition partners of the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) are advising the government to approach the opposition political parties for building a consensus on the new ToRs [terms of references] of the proposed judicial commission to investigate the Panama Leaks against the Prime Minister's family, it was learnt.
This has been learnt that the government after taking input from the coalition partners may once again approach the opposition parties to discuss the new ToRs of the commission after Pakistan People's Party (PPP) and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) rejected the ToRs contained in the letter sent by the government to the Chief Justice of Pakistan.
The report gets credence from the fact that National Party, one of the government coalition partners, has vocally urged the PM to forge consensus on ToRs. Though Mahmood Khan Achakzai of PkMAP, the head of another PML-N coalition partner, didn't say anything publicly in this regard, it is quite understandable that he too wants the PM to evolve consensus on the issue. That Imran Khan has heaped a lot of scorn on the PM is a fact that has found its best expression in the latter's body language; he looks forlorn and beleaguered.
