President Dr Arif Alvi on Saturday said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan and the establishment can reconcile their severed relations themselves.
In an interview with a private TV channel, the president said that there should be a consensus on the appointment of next army chief as it is a serious matter, adding that the political parties should sit together and hold discussions regarding the appointment.
"Imran Khan's stance is clear. There should be a consensus on the appointment. The appointment of next army chief is an important matter," he added.
Talking about the possibility of an early election, the president said that talks can be held on snap polls in light of devastation caused by floods.
"It should be discussed whether people can cast votes or not. I am ready to consider this issue," he added.
Upon being asked if he is affiliated with the PTI, President Alvi said that his vision is in line with the party because he wanted to end corruption.
"I don't belong to any party while being in the presidency," he said.
