The federal government has decided that there will be no talks with Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan at present and that no political and legal relief will be given to the former prime minister and his party after the May 9 tragedy.
Moreover, it has been decided that according to the law of the country, action will be continued against the PTI leaders and others involved in the May 9 tragedy and the cases against the elements involved in the attack on the military installations will be tried in the military courts as soon as possible.
It has been learned through important sources of the federation that the ruling party cannot welcome the announcement of talks with the powerful people by the PTI chief. The government believes that after the evidence of PTI's involvement in the May 9 incidents came to light, it is now impossible for the federation to negotiate with them.
This protest of the PTI affected the image of the country at the global level, sources said, adding that the PTI has still made negative statements against the state, therefore, political negotiations with Imran on behalf of the federal government cannot be conducted at present.
At the highest level, it is being reviewed by the federation that there is no change in the PTI's narrative, sources said, adding that it seems difficult for the federal government to hold political talks with Imran.
Sources said that the main leaders of PTI are leaving the party after May 9, and this makes it clear that PTI is becoming politically isolated.
They said that the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) government has a clear policy that no political or legal relief can be given to PTI after the May 9 tragedy.
After the attacks on Pakistan's forces and state institutions, no political and legal flexibility can be shown by the federal government with Imran and the people associated with him, they added.
The sources said that the cases filed against the arrested elements involved in this tragedy, especially those who attacked military installations, will be immediately tried in military courts and action will be taken against these elements according to law.
They said that if the PTI leaders contact the federal government or any party included in PDM to continue their political journey, a strategy regarding them will be decided by the PDM leadership.
If any political faction emerges in the PTI in the future and those people join them whose narrative is to condemn May 9 and accept the writ of the state, talks can be held with them, but the decision will also be taken by the PDM leadership, they added.
The sources said that the federation currently has no intention of negotiating with Imran, but the decision to clamp down on the PTI can be made according to the country's law.
They claimed that a forward bloc of the PTI will soon come forward, which can participate in the country's politics by expressing political detachment from Imran.
