Government is still open for dialogue- Rashid

Islamabad- Information Minister Pervaiz Rashid has said the government is open for dialogue with Pakistan Tehreek-e Insaaf to end the current political crisis.
In an interview with a private television channel, he said Imran Khan should also not put forward the demands which fall outside the ambit of the constitution. He said the government had started addressing demands of the PTI before it started the long march from Lahore. The establishment of electoral reforms committee and the judicial commission were part of efforts to address concerns of Imran Khan. Responding to a question, the Information Minister said the government has neither arrested any worker of the PTI nor forced them to go back. It is actually the stance of the PTI chairman that has disappointed their workers. He said the containers and other measures were taken in the red zone for the security of the protesters and the leadership of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf and Awami Tehreek.
