ISLAMABAD: The federal government has extended an olive branch to the joint opposition, inviting it to sit with it for talks on the issue of electoral reforms and asking it to take back its decision of long march.
The offer was made by Minister for Science and Technology Fawad Chaudhry at a joint press conference with Minister for Information and Broadcasting Senator Shibli Faraz on Sunday.
Mr Chuadhry said long march was “unlawful” under the Charter of Democracy signed between Nawaz Sharif and Shaheed Benazir Bhutto. “We can sacrifice our government for the sake of democracy,” he remarked, while Senator Faraz said that at a time when Covid cases had witnessed a resurge, some “political orphans were trying to create instability” in the country.
