Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has decided to form two committees to hold meetings with Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) and Awami Tehreek (PAT) chiefs to curb political instability.
The decision was taken during a meeting that took place after observing the political situation in the wake of PAT and PTI sit-ins in Islamabad.
