LAHORE: The Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) has invited Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) to attend an all parties conference being organised by the party, Express News reported on Tuesday. PTI has said that a decision will be taken after consultation with party members.

Members of the MQM have been meeting representatives of political parties in an effort to hold a roundtable conference on national security, featuring stakeholders – including military leadership, religious and political leaders and intellectuals.

A delegation of the MQM Rabita Committee led by Deputy convener Senator Farooq Sattar met PTI President Javed Hashmi and Shah Mehmood Qureshi in Lahore today.

Speaking to the media after the meeting, Sattar said that Paksitan was facing a number of issues and that it was important that all political parties set their differences aside and work together to come up with solutions for these issues.

@JoinHands!: very disapponting response. This is not how politics should be in our country. It is important hear what is being said, but not who is saying it. If it is in national interest it deserves hearing and delibration.
