Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has declined the government’s invitation to attend a security briefing on the recent surge in India-Pakistan tensions, announcing its decision through a statement by the party’s political committee.

According to PTI spokesperson Sheikh Waqas Akram, while the party fully condemns all forms of terrorism and acknowledges the importance of national unity in critical times, it will not participate in the government’s briefing.

He emphasized that PTI’s founding chairman, Imran Khan, despite being “unjustly imprisoned,” has consistently issued messages from jail condemning terrorism and calling for national solidarity.

Sheikh Waqas Akram stated that Imran Khan’s stance is clear and courageous, reflecting the thinking of a true national leader who aims to keep the nation united.

The PTI spokesperson further affirmed that the party stands at the forefront of national defence and urged the government to immediately convene an All-Parties Conference (APC) to take all political stakeholders into confidence regarding the current situation.
