Sirajul Haq met Imran Khan on Monday night at his residence at Zaman Park. After this meeting he called on Shahbaz Sharif with JI General Secretary Liaquat Baloch. The JI leader said the party is working on an amicable solution between all stakeholders. He added that the government should not stop Imran Khan’s long march and he should be given a free hand.
Sources said Shahbaz Sharif asked that Sirajul Haq’s suggestions with regards to a recount in 10 constituencies and even the formation of a Judicial Commission to probe alleged rigging in the general election. Haq reportedly informed Shahbaz that PTI’s leadership is surrounded by some diehard party members who are calling for Nawaz Sharif’s resignation.
Sources said Sirajul Haq made a commitment with Shahbaz Sharif that he would play his role on the day of the long march and would meet other opposition parties. Additionally, Sirajul Haq reportedly said that if the PML-N announces a judicial commission he would make arrangements for negotiating both sides to come to the table.

Advocate of TALK are seems to be not ready for TALK . Why ??
The reason is that the forces backing them are trying to fulfil their unfulfiled agenda of Red Mosque from behind the scene ,
The govt. Also seems to be ready to deal with them . Armed forces are also ready to welcome them in her own style .
Pakistan is passing with a big political turmoil . All parties should to show patience and lineant attitude . Its not a matter of honour for any one but its a matter of pakistanz should except PTI legal demands and let them protest which is basic right of every citizen to save the democratic system ,other wise PM Nawaz will be responsible for derailment of democracy which we got after many sacrefices like assassination of Bhutto and many others
JI is concerned about difficult times country is passing, but Deputy King of Raiwind and CHIEF SECRETARY Punjab Mr. Shahbaz Sharif has no concern about miseries of poor public passing under containers and licking dust. He will turn Lahore into an inferno within next couple of days.
