A meeting between the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) negotiating team and the party's founder, Imran Khan, is expected to take place within the next two days.

According to Express News, Speaker Ayaz Sadiq reached out to senior PTI leaders Asad Qaiser and Omar Ayub following a message from Omar Ayub about the ongoing negotiations between the PTI and the government.

Sources confirmed that Ayub had sent a message to Speaker Sadiq earlier today. In response, the Speaker engaged in discussions with PTI's negotiating committee about arranging a meeting with the party's founder.

Although Sadiq clarified that it was not his responsibility to facilitate a meeting with Imran Khan, he expressed his intention to help arrange the meeting between the two sides. "It was never my responsibility to arrange a meeting with the PTI founder, and it still isn't, but I will make efforts to ensure the negotiating committee meets him," Sadiq said.

The Speaker has also been in contact with government officials, and it is now likely that the PTI negotiating team will meet with Imran Khan in the coming two days. The PTI delegation plans to present their written demands after the meeting.

This development follows two rounds of talks between the government and PTI, with the third round scheduled for Wednesday.
