PTI's anti-drone stand has become a national demand: Qureshi

MULTAN: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader, Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Sunday said the stand that his party took against US drone attacks had now become the demand of the whole nation, Geo News reported.

“Today, the whole country was saying the same thing what PTI started years ago”, said he addressing a press conference here.

Replying to a question, he said that PTI was facing difficulty naming an opposition leader of its choice owing to a shortage of seats.

“We are compelled to compromise on certain issues in order to reach the needed majority to change the opposition leader”, said he.

Qureshi, however, added that the nation has appointed Imran Khan as the leader of the opposition unanimously.

To another question he said that the government should not forget that the Taliban had tied peace talks with a drone ceasefire.
