LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Vice-President Maryam Nawaz has once again ruled out dialogue with the Prime Minister Imran Khan-led government, saying that ‘grand or mini’ dialogue has no value anymore.
In a tweet on Friday night, the PML-N vice president said that the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) would not enter into any kind of negotiations with the government amid calls for dialogue.
پی ڈی ایم کا فیصلہ ہے کہ کوئی مذاکرات نہیں کیے جائیں گے۔ پاکستان مسلم لیگ ن کے قائد پوری طرح اس موقف کے ساتھ کھڑے ہیں۔ اس لیے کسی طرح کے مِنی یا گرینڈ ڈائیلاگ کی باتیں بے معنی ہیں۔ اس جعلی اور کٹھ پتلی حکومت کو کسی طرح کا این آر او نہیں ملے گا۔ یہ پوری قوم کا فیصلہ ہے۔

Maryam said that the PML-N leadership backs PDM’s decision to avoid holding talks with the government. “We will not give any NRO to this fake and puppet government, this is the nation’s decision,” Maryam maintained.
The development comes a day after Pakistan Muslim League-Functional (PML-F) secretary-general Muhammad Ali Durrani met PML-N president Shahbaz Sharif.
Talking to journalists after the meeting, Durrani said that once a series of resignations begins, the move will be detrimental for democracy and the country in general. “The country’s current situation demands a grand dialogue and that supremacy of the Constitution is a fundamental need for Pakistan,” he added.
