Tarar said he he never took Khan’s statement seriously since Khan was habitual of taking U-turns. While taking a jibe at Khan, the minister said that Khan was not going to dissolve assemblies, adding that if he did so, the government would conduct an election in that province.
Tarar said that politics is a name of tolerance. The minister said that it was a positive development that the PTI chief expressed a desire for negotiations, adding that they will think about it after discussing it with allies.
