Earlier, PPP had mounted pressure on Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to summon the meeting of the National Security Committee (NSC) and an all-parties conference (APC) regarding the talks with the banned Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).
The coalition party of the Shahbaz-led federal government, PPP has strongly reacted to ongoing talks with the banned TTP without taking it into confidence.
Sources told ARY News that PPP expressed serious reservations over the secrecy on the progress of ongoing talks with the banned TTP. Following the PPP’s reservations, the pressure was mounted on PM Shehbaz Sharif to summon an NSC meeting and an APC for a briefing on TTP talks.
It should be noted here that the coalition parties of the PML-N-led government expressed concerns over the secrecy being adopted for holding talks with the banned outfit.
