PTI neither refusing nor shying away from talks: Shah Mehmood Qureshi

ISLAMABAD, March 27 (Online): PTI leader Shah Mehmood Qureshi has said PTI is neither refusing nor shying away from talks but government intent is malafide.

“resources are available for PSL and for occasion of appearance of Imran Khan in courts but not available for election, he said this while talking to media men here outside Islamabad High Court (IHC) Monday.

On one side there is matter of talks and on other hand our men were arrested, he held.

We can talk about election by sitting together, he remarked.

What pretext is being made is weak that resources are not available for election but they are available for PSL and for the occasion of appearance of Imran Khan, he underlined.

He underscored it is hoped judiciary will protect consitution. We are with the judiciary. Gen (Retd) has denied about interview. Therefore, I can give no comment.

He observed our workers were arrested in Punjab. About 2000 workers have been arrested. The idol of fear has broken. The facts cannot be suppressed by imposing restrictions on media.

It is very clear in the constitution election will take place when, he indicated.
There is political instability in the country, he said adding Ishaq Dar statement in Senate has made environment feverish.
