00:00Mr. Khan knew that the meetings would be halted and that is why he has given different tasks to different people.

00:07Even if you are not present, you should implement what I have just said and follow it.

00:16So those who have been given tasks, as far as I know, they are doing their job.

00:22If someone is not doing it, I think the workers will not forgive him.

00:26Mr. Sen, will you shed some light on who has been given what tasks?

00:31Look, there are some things that I may not be able to tell you.

00:35There are a lot of tasks, important tasks.

00:38And what to do, who has to do it, all that has been told.

00:43Since the meetings are not taking place and we are not able to give our statements,

00:51so when the time comes, we will tell you who is doing what.

00:56But for example, you gave an example.

00:58If this was a strategy that after Eid, we have to go into a protest mode,

01:06then the preparation should be complete and it should be implemented.

01:11But the preparation is not complete, Mr. Sen.

01:14Neither is the preparation complete nor is the leadership ready.

01:17Because what I was told, my off-the-record sources,

01:20they told me that no such protest is being prepared that Islamabad will come and there will be a protest.

01:25And there is no such thing at the moment.

01:27Yes, this is not at all.

01:29I can also tell you that this is not the strategy at the moment.

01:34This strategy was not there before.

01:35There was no intention to protest in Islamabad after Eid.

01:41But there is a different strategy and it should be implemented.

01:46And you will see soon that it will be implemented.

01:49What is the strategy?

01:51Is it a conversation?

01:52Is it a negotiation?

01:53Is it to reach out to others, Mr. Sen?

01:55As far as reaching out is concerned, it is news.

02:03And the news that I have, I will treat it as news.

02:10What is the authenticity of it or what is the real thing?

02:14I have a meeting in the next two days.

02:17So when I find out directly what it is and what is the strategy on it, I will be able to tell you.

02:24But personally, I think that you should keep the door of dialogue open for a political party.

02:35The strategy that was made for it, which has been implemented more than half,

02:41is that we have to form an alliance with the opposition first.

02:47And then as a demand of the joint opposition, if we get a chance to negotiate, we will negotiate.

02:54So as far as the alliance is concerned, work is being done on it.

02:59100% has not been successful yet.

03:02Work is being done on it.

03:04It reaches 100% to 98%.

03:07Mr. Maulana is very happy and gives statements.

03:10Then there is a statement by Ali Amin Gandapur sahib.

03:12The water spills.

03:13So what is happening?

03:14Why is this happening?

03:18This is also something that has happened.

03:22But to look at it in this way,

03:25I will tell you about our positive side.

03:30The positive side is that on many principles,

03:34we have one common ground with Mr. Maulana.

03:40That is, we trust each other on those grounds.

03:44For example, selling the democracy, re-election,

03:47becoming the new chief election commissioner,

03:51becoming independent, making a good chief election commissioner,

03:56making clean electoral reforms,

04:00we have an agreement on these democratic principles.

04:05Our decision has been made.

04:08But there are some things on which there are still issues.

04:12And you pointed out something.

04:14I can also point out something else.

04:16On which our confidence-building measures have increased the chance of an agreement.

04:24But those things have not been completed yet.

04:27After confidence-building measures,

04:29what should we expect?

04:31Should we expect that there will be an alliance?

04:33Or will you still go on your own terms?

04:40Look, to a large extent,

04:42because we have different parties,

04:44and ultimately both these parties stand in front of each other in elections.

04:49Especially in the KPK area,

04:52they do not have an election alliance.

04:57Candidates are always against each other.

05:00Workers also stand against each other.

05:02So it is not possible that both parties,

05:05both political parties merge in one place.

05:08They will do their own politics.

05:10But as I said, there are some principles on which we can sit and oppose.

05:15And I think those principles are very important.

05:18Once those principles are decided,

05:21then I think this alliance can go ahead to that extent.

05:24Now we are talking about principles.

05:26Mr. Behraz, you are a lawyer.

05:28There is a Government Servant Conduct Rule of 1964.

05:30It says that no Government Servant can participate in politics,

05:33or any political rally, or political chanting,

05:36or even his family cannot participate in it.

05:39Here we have CM of KPK,

05:41who is doing very well with Wifaq on many issues.

05:44He is saying that we will come and protest

05:46if the issue of NFC is not solved by April.

05:48He will bring the Government Servant,

05:50he will bring the Government Officers,

05:52he will bring the Police.

05:54Will this matter be legal, Mr. Behraz?

05:58I think you have answered your question.

06:01Clearly, this law is very clear

06:04that Civil Servants cannot participate in such protests.

06:08And this is the law.

06:11Let them do their work.

06:13I think it is not right to involve them in such politics.

06:18This is my clear view, my opinion.

06:26But I would also like to say that

06:29as far as the NFC is concerned,

06:31this is something that has been disputed for a long time.

06:38It is very important that it is solved in a way

06:42that you do not deprive a province of its rights

06:47through the NFC award.

06:51That I agree with.

06:53That I agree with.

06:55Mr. Behraz, last question.

06:57Bilawal Bhutto Zardari,

06:59his party, Pakistan People's Party,

07:01and PMLN are having a water dispute

07:03regarding the Cholistan Canal.

07:05You must remember that before the government was formed,

07:07the People's Party reached out to PTI

07:09to form a government together.

07:12So let's form a government together.

07:14Now, there is a small dispute between the government and PTI.

07:17Does PTI have any intention of exploiting this dispute?

07:20Let's reach out to PTI again.

07:22The matter is not being resolved from where you want to talk.

07:25They are saying that if you want to do politics,

07:27then the politicians will have to talk to each other.

07:29So let's see if the politicians can come up with a solution.

07:32Look, in my opinion,

07:35the first step is to form a joint opposition.

07:39The People's Party is in the government,

07:41so let's treat it as a government party.

07:45So, first of all, it is necessary

07:47that your joint opposition becomes an alliance,

07:50which can form TORs,

07:53and we can decide how we want to proceed.
