LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) formed a three-member committee on Monday to discuss seat adjustment with the PML-Q for the next elections.

Sources said that the committee headed by Shah Mahmood Qureshi is formed after the approval of party chairman Imran Khan. The committee includes former defence minister Parvez Khattak and former information minister Fawad Chaudhry.

The committee will hold its first meeting on Tuesday to decide SOPs for negotiations.

The PML-Q has demanded seat adjustments in more than two dozen constituencies with the PTI before the dissolution of the Punjab Assembly.

Last week, the PTI chief announced that the assemblies in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhawa would be dissolved on Dec 23.

Meanwhile, the PM Shehbaz Sharif-led coalition government has accelerated efforts to thwart the PTI’s plan to dissolve the assemblies in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Earlier in the day, the prime minister held a meeting with federal and provincial ministers to discuss the vote of no-confidence against Punjab Chief Minister Pervaiz Elahi with possibility of the governor asking the chief minister to take the vote of confidence.
