PM tasks Punjab, NA speakers with placating PPP

Author: Agencies

Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif has instructed the speakers of the national assembly and Punjab’s provincial assembly to take active steps to address concerns raised by the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP).

The directive came during a consultative session held in Model Town, Lahore, to review the current political climate, party sources reported on Sunday.

The meeting included National Assembly Speaker Sardar Ayaz Sadiq and Punjab Assembly Speaker Malik Muhammad Ahmad Khan.

According to officials, discussions focused on the PPP’s grievances as well as Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) protests, which have raised concerns of potential political instability. To ease tensions with the PPP, the prime minister had previously set up a committee dedicated to resolving their issues.
