00:00How much authority do you have? To what extent do you have the authority to give relief?
00:04Because many people think that you have a limited mandate.
00:07Can you make big decisions to any extent without the approval of the government and the establishment?
00:15Look, the situation is such that this is not a matter of mandate and authority.
00:25The matter is that the Charter of Demand will be presented to us in the next meeting.
00:32We will come back to it. The committee members will come and meet the Prime Minister.
00:41We will take the guidance and advice of the Prime Minister on it.
00:47And the Prime Minister will have a consultation process with his party, with his party, with our leader, Mr. Anwar Shah.
00:59All the people will be included in that consultation. The committee members will also be included.
01:03The senior people of the party will also be included. The party leader will also be included.
01:07The rest of the establishment will also be taken on board. The establishment is a part of the government.
01:12So after that, as a result of that debate, the response and the decision that will be made on it,
01:18we will also put that decision in front of them in black and white, that you have made demands.
01:24We can do this, we cannot do this. This can be done, this cannot be done.
01:29The debate that will take place, the discussion that will take place, will be based on the conclusion that
01:38what they are demanding and what we are conceding, there can be an agreement on it or not.
01:49So this is not something that if a mandate has been given, then the committee will go there and make a decision by itself.
01:58We will not make any decision until we put our party leadership, party leader, prime minister on board.
02:08They will not be approved. And this is not our thing. Same is on the other side.
02:14The PTI team will also not go back or forward without Imran Khan's consent.
02:23And the people's party people will also go and consult with their leadership.
02:30So this is not a matter of authorization or mandate. This is a political dialogue.
02:35As a result of this dialogue, see, we are trying to find a solution to this and move forward.
02:43So to what extent does this matter go ahead, this is after the arrival of the Charter of Demand and after our response.
02:51So Mr. Rana, tell me one thing, today you said a very interesting sentence.
02:57You said that dialogues solve problems, not deadlines.
03:02But they have given you a deadline of 31 January.
03:05Now what you are saying, first your committee will sit by itself, then the Prime Minister will sit,
03:10then you will meet Mr. Nawaz Sharif, then he will discuss with the establishment,
03:15then his input will come, that input will be discussed again.
03:19I don't see this ending by 31 January.
03:25Because they will also go, meet Mr. Khan and come back.
03:29Practically speaking, do you think that in 31 January,
03:34because this is not going to be a daily discussion between the two committees,
03:38so within two weeks, two and a half weeks, can this discussion end?
03:46In any case, Mr. Malik, there are no such deadlines in discussions.
03:54They should not have said this.
03:56This deadline should not have been given.
03:59Civil disobedience, this matter of stopping remittances, that should not have been done either.
04:06But in both these cases, we are ready to talk, we are doing it.
04:12And we do not want to bring any kind of misunderstanding from our side.
04:22But the position on our side,
04:28yesterday we met the Prime Minister, the committee members, for today's meeting.
04:33And if they had given us the Charter of Demand today,
04:37then we would have sat with the Prime Minister today itself.
04:40And the Prime Minister would have sat with his allies and the party leader, Mr. Mian Washi,
04:46in the next one or two days.
04:48The Charter of Demand that they will give us,
04:50in four to five days,
04:52we will give them a comprehensive, black and white answer on it,
04:57that this is the situation, these things are not permissible for you, this cannot happen.
05:01And we are conceding these things to them.
05:04In this way, we can move forward.
05:08You remember from the talks,
05:11they have put two weeks in the Charter of Demand.
05:16After that, it is not possible for them to say that we will not talk about it after 31st January.
05:25But anyway, if they have such an intention, then that is fine.
05:30We do not have any condition on it, but it is not appropriate.
05:36Tell me, this reminds me of something.
05:39I heard in the meeting,
05:41there was a lot of commotion.
05:43Mr. Ali Amin Ghandapur was speaking very positively.
05:47In fact, he also said that
05:49when there was a talk outside,
05:51he said, forget the outside talks,
05:53the outside talks are for the workers.
05:55We will talk about the inside talks.
05:57So, was there really a talk
05:59that you are talking about something else
06:01and the workers are talking about something else?
06:05As a committee member,
06:07I cannot say such things.
06:12But I endorse your point
06:16that today,
06:18Ali Amin Ghandapur
06:20participated in the meeting for the first time.
06:22Raja Salman Akram
06:26also came to the meeting for the first time.
06:30Both of them expressed their opinions.
06:34They had a very positive opinion
06:37regarding the talks.
06:39Especially, Ali Amin Ghandapur
06:41spoke very nicely.
06:43Thank you very much.
06:45Thank you very much.
06:47You did not tell me that I was wrong.
06:51But as a committee member,
06:53you cannot say yes or no.
06:55But your denial is enough
06:57that there was no such thing.
06:59The last question.
07:01Ali Amin Ghandapur
07:03spoke very soberly
07:05and wisely.
07:07He expressed his good feelings
07:09for the success
07:11of the talks
07:13and for the progress
07:15of the political process.
