Negotiations were deliberately foiled: Salman Akram Raja

Salman Akram Raja, the Secretary-General of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), stated that the narrative surrounding the failure of negotiations was false, alleging that the talks were deliberately sabotaged. Speaking to the media in Peshawar, Raja reiterated that the decision for a long march remains firm. He also claimed that the Chief Minister and Speaker were made to disappear. Raja emphasized that PTI is a law-abiding party and will conduct peaceful protests, adding that they await the court's decision on the long march and questioned the relevance of other provinces to the ongoing application. This reflects the ongoing political tensions and disagreements between the PTI and other factions within Pakistan, highlighting the party's continued commitment to its protest strategy despite alleged attempts to undermine their efforts. The claims of deliberate sabotage and disappearances add a layer of controversy to the political landscape.
