Rana Sanaullah Offers Talks to PTI if Long March Ends
Published On 07 Oct, 2026
9 News HD: Prime Minister’s Adviser on Political Affairs Rana Sanaullah has urged Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) to end its long march and return to talks with the government, saying political issues can be settled through dialogue.
Sanaullah said the government’s offer for talks is still available if PTI calls off its long march. He said the government has repeatedly tried to resolve political differences through negotiations instead of confrontation.
According to Sanaullah, previous talks between the government and PTI made progress, but the process later stopped over differences on several issues, including the government’s policy on terrorism. He said the government wants all political matters to be discussed at the negotiating table.
The government has also said that it is ready to discuss PTI’s concerns, while maintaining its position on security and counterterrorism. Sanaullah stressed that talks cannot move forward if either side places conditions that the other side cannot accept.
The latest offer comes as political tensions remain high over the PTI long march. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has also called on PTI to end the protest and return to negotiations, saying all issues can be discussed through talks.
The situation now depends on whether PTI agrees to stop the long march and return to the negotiating table. Both sides face pressure to find a political solution and avoid further tension.
