PESHAWAR: Hours after it was reported that Pervez Khattak would be joining Jahangir Tareen in his new political venture, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader said that he has not met Istihkam-e-Pakistan Party’s Chief. “I have had no meeting with Jahangir Tareen.

At this time, I do not wish to speak on any political matters,” former Defence Minister told.  He added that Tareen’s party had neither offered him post of secretary general nor he accepted any such offer. “I am at my place and in touch with my colleagues in province.” Earlier today, it was reported that Khattak is likely to be made secretary general of newly-established IPP.

Development came two weeks after Khattak announced in presser that he was stepping down from his position as President of PTI’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chapter. However, PTI chief’s aide had dismissed reports that he was quitting former party and termed them “Propaganda”.
