Talk by Shah Mehmood Qureshi
Shah Mehmood Qureshi, head of PTI’s negotiation committee, said in a media talk that Tehreek-e-Insaf is ready to go to the National Assembly once again to give constitutional protection to the elections to be held after 90 days. Tehreek-e-Insaf will go to the National Assembly to amend the constitution, but this amendment will be for one time only because we do not want it to become a permanent sand.
Shah Mehmood Qureshi said that the negotiation process should not be used as a delaying tactic because the decision of the Supreme Court is in accordance with the constitution, so implement it. It was also agreed that if a point is reached, a road map for its implementation should also be set.
