Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Chief of Army Staff General Raheel Sharif are expected to meet at the Prime Minister House on Monday.
The meeting comes a day after the army said it was “reaffirming support to democracy” and reiterated that the ongoing standoff between the Nawaz government and the Pakistan Tehreek-I-Insaaf (PTI), Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) needed a political solution.
Yesterday’s meeting of the top military brass rejected “further use of force” in the crisis with the commanders expressing “serious concern” over the violent turn of events in the federal capital.
