Earlier, Fawad Chaudhry while talking to Urdu News said that "Tehreek-e-Insaf is ready for talks but the environment for talks is not being created like the government." He said that on the one hand the government talks about negotiations, on the other hand PTI leaders and workers are arrested due to which the atmosphere of negotiations cannot be created.
