Addressing a press conference after the meeting of the Rahbar Committee in Islamabad, convenor of the committee, Akram Khan Durrani said that various proposals were under consideration at the meeting. And all the parties will discuss these suggestions after which the decision will be taken.
Talking to our media, PML-N’s Ahsan Iqbal, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Nair Bukhari and ANP Iftikhar Hussain said they had come forward.

Akram Durrani said that it was decided in the APC last night that the Raheer Committee will take a decision regarding the future.

He said that the leadership committee and our leadership have been in a position from the beginning and various proposals are under consideration to pursue this goal. Representatives of all parties will work out a consensus method to put these suggestions in front of their parties.
Akram Durrani said that the leadership committee will remain intact, the government has suggested contact and we are not afraid to stay in touch. But our Prime Minister made the speech in Gilgit yesterday and said today. Then the head of the government committee, Pervez Khattak, said yesterday that nobody should speak to us on the resignation, in the same way, the tone of the two is not appropriate. “Our only prerequisite is resignation, we are political people and they are all democratic parties,” the Leader Committee said. Those who have suffered and suffered democratically all their lives and have driven their movements, so we are not in denial of contact. Referring to Prime Minister Imran Khan’s speech and Pervez Khattak’s statement, he said that the tone of the two is not appropriate; they must first correct their tone. They said, “If there is no resignation and we are asking for resignation, they say that if we do not talk about it then why need contact?” But we are democratic and we are ready to talk.
Akram Durrani said in today’s meeting that it warned all the undemocratic forces that an attempt was made to take advantage of the current situation and if any further action was taken by the Constitution, all the political parties would fight together. He said that if there was an action in view of the threat to the country’s survival and security, we all said that it was not good for the country’s survival and security. Informing the proposals, he said that there have been proposals for forward-looking action, with resignations under consideration, there is also a shutter down, blocking the highways, the entire country, and all the options that are needed today for any movement on the 20th of the district level.
On the question of contract with the government, he said that we are in agreement, there are millions of people who are organized and are bound by the same order, no one was detected but the government created various obstacles along the way, the people of Kurram and Hangu were not getting a car, north and South Waziristan workers were not getting a car, but when they protested, permission was obtained. He said that our workers who were injured in the convoy are not being admitted to the hospitals and the hospital has been told not to treat them.
Earlier, a spokesperson for the Rahbar Committee had said that a meeting of the opposition leadership committee was convened at the residence of JUI-F leader Akram Khan Durrani for a consultation on the Freedom March. Spokeswoman Akram Durrani said that a decision would be taken to take the Freedom March to D Chowk in the meeting of the Revenue Committee but the question in this regard was not made clear in the press conference.

Defense Minister and head of the government negotiation team, Pervez Khattak
On the other hand, the government negotiating committee announces to go to court on the statement given by the head of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (F) regarding arrest of Prime Minister Imran Khan. There will be no talk on the resignation of the Prime Minister. After the meeting of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Corps Committee in Islamabad, members of the government negotiating team held a press conference. Speaking on the occasion, Defense Minister and head of the government negotiation team, Pervez Khattak, said that today’s meeting was unanimous on many issues, we are still ready to negotiate but want to spread this chaos, which is their motive, as Kashmir was very proud of the problem nowadays but it lagged behind, its benefits could reach India. He said that he was given a place in H Nine as per the wishes of the Rahbar Committee and that the agreement with the Rahbar Committee was confirmed by Maulana Fazlur Rehman, while at the same time he said that the government was firm on its own words and behind the deal. Will not be removed during the conversation, he said that the members of the Rahbar Committee and the leader of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (F) were in contact with Akram Durrani and the doors of the talks were open.
However, he said if the country or anything was harmed, the responsibility would come to the opposition because they had contracted, Imran Khan allowed them to come in openly but if the opposition threatens bullying and does not fulfill their word, and then it means they are tongue-in-cheek. Defense Minister Pervez Khattak has warned that if the opposition marches on Prime Minister House in violation of the agreement reached at Peshawar, then there will be a responsible committee. Continuing on the matter, he said that if they did not compromise then they would be free but if anything, it would fall on them. If we were to make a mistake, you can ask people, but if they break the agreement you will have to tell.
In a press briefing by members of the government negotiating team, he said that there was great regret at the speech yesterday, in which the opposition criticized the government. At the same time, the Defense Minister said that yesterday’s speeches were more criticized by the institutions, they are Pakistani institutions, ISPR also made a statement yesterday that we would stand with the democratic government, the institutions saved the country, gave martyrs and sacrifices, cleared the area non. So if they speak against the institutions then who will work in Pakistan, so they should not be hostile to the country, they are ours and all their institutions. Speaking to Shahbaz Sharif, the head of the government negotiating committee on supporting the organization 10% said that he should have seen in his pocket how Nawaz Sharif came to power, General Jilani remembers.
Pervez Khattak said that the army is a neutral institution, and when an organization became neutral, it hurt them, which made it clear that they kept on backing someone, however, as institutions are playing a neutral role, we pay tribute to those who are entities, whether it be the military or bureaucrats who are all with the government, which cannot be separated. Moving forward, he said that his only demand was to resign but it may not be that 30 to 40 thousand people come and beg for resignation, which means that democracy cannot go on in the country again.
The head of the government committee criticized the opposition, saying that they do not want democracy and forcefully want to break the government. Which can never happen in a big country like Pakistan, it is not a small country that 50,000 people can come and overthrow, this has never happened. He said that the political people of the leadership committee should take care of their dignity and stand on their point.
At the press conference, Pervez Khattak said the opposition had said that the election was rigged, we also said that in the last elections there was rigging but we went to the Election Commission, the Assembly and the courts, after which we came to the streets but these people did not go anywhere. He said that the opposition did not present any record on rigging in the elections, but we are still ready to present it to the committee if they have any evidence. However, he said that we won them by a double vote; we worked for people in our area when it came to results or things didn’t come out like that, at the same time, he said that there are some wise people in the opposition who will never make decisions that are harmful to the country. Pervez Khattak said that the announcement by the participants of the Freedom March would be harmful; we do not want a confrontation but if forced, and then what will happen to him in front of everyone. The defense minister said that the country’s economy is geared towards improvement, but in the initial stages, tough decisions have to be taken.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman’s statement to go to court:
In his discussion, Pervez Khattak said that the Corps Committee has decided that Maulana Fazlur Rehman, who said that the people would go and resign from Imran Khan, we are going to court on this statement because they are inciting people and this is a rebellion. During the press conference, former finance minister Asad Omar addressed Shahbaz Sharif in response to a question. To tell them that the army stopped them from fixing the system of policing, torture, educational institutions?
