Pro-govt journalists confused over backdoor talks between Imran Khan, establishment
Three pro-government journalists confused over backdoor talks between Imran Khan and the establishment.
Three pro-government journalists including Hamid Mir, Gharidah Farooqi and Mubasher Lucman, were confused over backdoor talks between PTI chief Imran Khan and the establishment while they surprisingly tweeted on the same topic at the same time.
At 6:18 pm on Twitter, senior anchorperson Hamid Mir tweeted that the talks between PTI and the establishment were not successful while the backdoor channel was also silenced then when will Imran Khan announce the long march?
باخبر ذرائع کے مطابق تحریک انصاف اور اسٹیبلشمنٹ کے درمیان مذاکرات کامیاب نہیں ہوئے ، بیک ڈور چینل بھی خاموش ہو چکا تو پھر عمران خان لانگ مارچ کا اعلان کب کرینگے؟ #CapitalTalk

Gharidah Farooqi tweeted at 7:13 pm that the reports of talks between Imran Khan and the establishment were wrong. She termed the spread of reports regarding an alleged compromise a ‘fake news’.
مکمل ذمہ داری سے خبر دے رہی ہوں کہ اسٹیبلشمنٹ/عمران خان/PTI کے درمیان کسی بھی مذاکرات کی خبریں مکمل غلط ہیں؛ خاص طور پر کور کمانڈرز کانفرنس کے بعد؛ یہ باتیں پھیلانا کہ کوئی ڈیل یا جلد الیکشن یا کوئی سمجھوتہ ہو رہا ہے؛ مکمل فیک نیوز FAKE NEWS ہے؛ میڈیا/سوشل میڈیا پر غلط خبر ہے۔

Mubasher Lucman tweeted at the same time at 7:13 pm and said that “Various reports circulating on social media about a possible deal or settlement between PTI and the establishment are completely false and fabricated.”
Various reports on Social Media about a possible deal or settlement between the PTI and Establishment are totally false and fabricated. As per my sources there is no such thing in the pipeline and this is yet another attempt at fabrication of truth

Analysts said Gharidah Farooqi and Mubasher Luqman tweeted at the same time followed by Hamid Mir regarding the backdoor talks. They questioned the journalists who forced the senior journalists to tweet the same contents at the same time.
They further said the pro-government journalists claimed that there was no negotiations taking place and if they are taking place then they remained unsuccessful.
This means that the statement given by Imran Khan that the backdoor channel negotiations are going on was wrong and the reports of these journalists are correct.
It raised another question of whether the deal is happening or not. They added that what does it matter to the journalists, do they have the responsibility to tell the public that the deal is not happening?
Sources told News360 that the negotiations are taking place but the negotiations have not yet reached a conclusion but it is still continued. Time will tell if the negotiations are happening now or not, they added.
