He said that calls to shut down the country would not only be inappropriate but disastrous and that Pakistan is being played with in an unfortunate manner. He said that his government strongly believed in settling issues through negotiations.

PM said, we are the democratic people. The negotiations should be constructive. If they want to talk, we would have no objection.

The prime minister gave his remarks after arriving in the United Kingdom to attend the London Conference on Afghanistan.

When speaking of investigating alleged rigging in the 2013 general elections, the PM stated that the issue should have been raised earlier on.

Pointing out the KPK government, PM Nawaz Sharif said that education institutions are not well reformed and jails are broken in their province. After this, Nawaz Sharif said,

“First make a new KP, then think about making a new Pakistan”.

Remember that PTI leader Dr. Arif Alvi has already said that if Nawaz Sharif wants to continue to start again the talks with PTI, he can.
