Lahore: President Dr. Arif Alvi has said that if Imran Khan is arrested, there will be severe public reaction.
While talking to senior journalists, the President said that the situation will get worse after the arrest of Imran Khan, this should not happen because there will be severe public reaction. He said that the party did not talk to me about the issue of Fawad Chaudhary, he should be ashamed of the way he was handcuffed.
President Alvi said that in the political field, no progress has been made by the government in the negotiations in a month and a half. There are no negotiations at any level at this time. Imran Khan is not averse to talks. I hold the government responsible for this.
He said that I have no contact with the establishment. I thought people would sit down to negotiate. The army has said that it does not want to interfere in politics. At this time, the country needs people to sit and talk, the politicians themselves have to fill this gap.
The President of the State said that if not earlier, he will discuss the election itself. The statements of Fawad Chaudhary and other leaders are in front that talks should be held. Some people are seeing room for delay in the constitution, that is a concern for me, but there is complete trust in the people and the politicians. I do not think that Shahbaz Sharif will not get a vote of confidence in the National Assembly.
He said that talks were held with Ishaq Dar, but he did not talk to the Prime Minister. The Election Commission should take decisions responsibly. The formula of minus one has never succeeded in Pakistan. Pakistan will not default inshAllah.
