Another UTurn PTI ends boycott of Geo News

[Saifullah Sani]

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has ended its boycott of Geo News Television after eight-and-a- half months, the party’s central leader Shafqat Mahmood participating in Hamid Mir’s program Capital Talk.

Mir welcomed Mahmood on his show and thanked the PTI for ending boycott of the channel.

PTI chief Imran Khan announced to boycott the channel in his press conference on May 2, 2014 in Islamabad, alleging the channel’s role in rigging the general elections held in May 2013.

During his campaign and sit-in against the PMLN government, Khan regularly criticized Mir Shakilur Rehman for siding with “corrupt and rigged government.”

A source in the PTI told JournalismPakistan.com that Geo Television’s management and representatives from journalists unions had been requesting Imran Khan to end the boycott.

“The backdoor negotiations between the PTI and journalist unions' representatives have worked out and Imran Khan has finally decided to end the channel’s boycott,” he said.

On November 25 last year, Imran Khan held a detailed meeting with journalists from Geo-Jang group at his residence in Bani Gala. Khan was requested by the delegation to allow his party representatives to appear on Geo TV talk shows but he had declined.

Interesting if its true then i think IK got over his grudge with Mir Shakeel-ur-rehman..or maybe the begging of the Jang journalists worked on IK so that they can get some ratings..

@Leader? What happened to your Leader after marriage? Is he backing off from his commitments he took during dharna-abad?

What was his commitment? did he say that he'll boycott Jang forever? In any case i personally hate Geo and will continue to do so thanks to their Indian financing and their agenda against Pakistan's agencies..

I guess any new decision if PTI makes even, patwaris will always label it a U-Turn..just like the KPK senate thing although it wasn't NA but KPK assembly...

Good thing with Imran opponents is that they are such jokers.

They need a tidbit of info, even half baked, to begin flogging PTI. As Omer Cheema tweet states, a committee has been formed to discuss the matter.

PTI and their supporters here are bigger joke then that.

They are making so many decision which doesnt make any sense at all like participating in Senate elections quite recently.
