In a bid to develop consensus on the issue, the PM also extended an invite to his rival Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan. Federal Minister Ayaz Sadiq had contacted top PTI leaders – including former National Assembly speaker Asad Qaiser and ex-defence minister Pervez Khattak – and asked them to participate in the moot. The invitation was a major development as the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM)-led government and the PTI have always been at loggerheads over almost all national issues, not only since Khan’s ouster from the PM Office, but even when the tables were turned. However, PTI Secretary General Asad Umar said that party chief Imran Khan would not attend the federal government’s APC. The PTI leader Umar had said: “How can we sit with them [PDM-led government] while cases are being registered against us?”
