Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar on Sunday voiced concerns over the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) “timing” of staging the protests.
Expressing his thoughts, Dar questioned the credibility of the PTI’s protest, saying, “Whether it is the political protest or the conspiracy against the integrity of the country.”
He lamented that the PTI had always staged the protests during the visits of the international personalities—the visit of the Chinese premier, the SCO summit, and the visit of the Chinese president.
Dar urged the embattled PTI to prioritise the national interests over the ‘substandard’ politics.
– No chance of PTI founder's release –
Few days back, Defence Minister Khawaja Asif said that there was no chance of PTI founder Imran Khan's release.
Speaking to media outside the Parliament House, Asif said: "It is also unlikely that Imran Khan will get relief as of now. The PTI is making full efforts to avoid staging its upcoming protest on November 24."
"Both political and military leaderships are moving the country's matters forward. We will not allow any province's attack on the center at any cost."
Asif asserted, "Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur is holding talks with the establishment since day one."
"Anything can happen in the country's political landscape; there are still two days left before the PTI's protest," he stated.
