Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur has confirmed ongoing communication with the establishment, stating that no significant outcomes have emerged from these interactions.
Gandapur, a member of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, made these remarks following a meeting with Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf founder Imran Khan at Adiala Jail on Saturday.
Speaking to the media, Gandapur said, “The government urges us to negotiate, but we assert that you are not even the government, so what should we negotiate with you?”
He explained that, as chief minister, he holds an official position that necessitates contact with the establishment but admitted that these discussions had yet to yield any substantial progress.
“When we engage with them, we will not forget our martyrs. We will acknowledge our mistakes and expect them to do the same,” he added.
Gandapur said PTI’s founder remains steadfast in his ideology, declaring, “An ideology cannot be imprisoned. The nation stands for upholding the Constitution and maintaining dignity.”
“The chairman always advocated for negotiations for the country’s sake,” Gandapur said.
Referring to past events, Gandapur stated, “The PTI founder warned of an attack on him, and it happened.
