Smiling, Khawaja Asif responded, “Of course, it should happen. There’s no doubt about it. The traditions of the past were different.”

When pressed further, he jokingly added, “So you’re saying we shouldn’t even meet in the corridor?” — prompting more laughter.

On a more serious note, Barrister Gohar reiterated PTI’s stance on national security, stating, “We have already said there should be unity against terrorism.”

While the meeting was brief, the warm exchange stood in contrast to the usual political tensions, sparking speculation about whether it signals a potential thaw in relations.
