ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Vice Chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi said that meeting with IMF team was fruitful. “We supported Stand-by Agreement (SBA) for sake of Pakistan as there was risk of default,” Qureshi told media outside Anti-Terrorism Court of Islamabad. He said PDM was facing bleak future due to fissures.

“Maulana Fazlur Rehman held press conference on Sunday and seemed disappointed with PML-N. An interesting political development is in making, he said, as PML-N and Pakistan Peoples’ Party seemed to be parting ways.

He said PTI supported agreement for sake of Pakistan to avert risk of default and contain inflation.  PTI leader said that he would consider interests of Pakistan in any case. He also spoke about cricket and said all eyes were on upcoming World Cup. “Pakistan’s thinking has always been constructive. Hesitation of Indian cricket team in coming to Pakistan is unfounded,” Qureshi concluded.
