Govt, JI ready for parleys as both form committee to talk out differences

A day after the Jamaat-e-Islami started its protest against inflation and exorbitant power bills, the government and JI finally agreed to hold dialogue.

Sourced told that the JI had accepted the government’s demand of forming a three-member committee for parleys with the government.

Meanwhile, the government had also constituted a committee in this regard which comprises Federal Information Minister Atta Tarar, Tariq Fazal Chaudhry and Amir Muqam.

On the other hand, sources said that the JI would continue its sit-in until its demands are met by the government.

JI workers have started to arrive at Murree Road, Liaqat Bagh where JI chief Hafiz Naeemur Rehman would speak at a press conference to announce further line of action.
