IF PRO-NAWAZ COME OUT, THE DRAMA WILL CHANGE TO ??????????? Talks resume to end Pakistan drama ISLAMABAD — The party of Pakistani opposition politician Imran Khan said Friday it was resuming talks with the government aimed at ending tense protests, even as it submitted the resignations of 34 lawmakers from parliament. Former cricketer Khan and populist cleric Tahir-ul-Qadri have led thousands of supporters demonstrating outside the legislature this week calling for Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to go. Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) party said dialogue was restarting through contact with the governor of Punjab, Pakistan’s most populous province, after calling off the talks a day earlier with the insistence that Sharif resign first. “We are resuming talks with the government,” PTI vice-chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi said. Qureshi also submitted the resignations of its lawmakers in the National Assembly, the lower house of federal parliament, on Friday. – AFP
