PML-N, PPP agree to resolve all issues through dialogue

PML-N and PPP have reached an agreement to settle all matters through dialogue. A meeting between the PML-N and PPP delegations took place at the National Assembly chamber in Islamabad and concluded successfully. Both parties agreed to resolve differences amicably and pledged to avoid harsh language against each other. 

The meeting included Speaker Ayaz Sadiq, Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar, Rana Sanaullah, Azam Nazeer Tarar, Tariq Fazal Chaudhry and Rana Mubashir from PML-N. The PPP delegation comprised Syed Naveed Qamar and Ijaz Jakhrani. 

Earlier, the PPP has demanded that PML-N’s Maryam Nawaz retract her recent statements and issue a public apology, sources said on Wednesday. The matter was raised during a meeting between a PPP delegation and Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar in Islamabad, highlighting widening cracks within the ruling coalition.

According to sources, PPP leaders expressed strong displeasure over Maryam Nawaz’s remarks, insisting that no party leader, worker, or official had issued any controversial statement against Punjab. “If any of our workers, officials or leaders have criticized Punjab or written on social media, provide proof. If there is no proof, Maryam Nawaz should withdraw her statement and apologize,” the PPP delegation conveyed.

Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar listened to the PPP’s stance and assured the delegation that their reservations would be addressed. Sources added that Dar had already contacted PPP leadership earlier, promising to help resolve the issue and ease tensions. The meeting was seen as part of the federal government’s efforts to prevent the disagreement from escalating further.

Before the meeting, Law Minister Azam Nazir Tarar had informed Ishaq Dar about the PPP’s concerns. Dar then reached out to the party, assuring them that steps would be taken to bridge differences between the allies.
