QUETTA, Nov 17: An action committee set up by political groups including the JUI-F, ANP and BNP-Mengal and the Anjuman-i-Tajran has decided to convene a grand meeting of all political parties on Dec 2 to formulate joint line of action against arrests of political activists by intelligence agencies.

A statement issued after the meeting said that Maulana Noor Mohammad would table an adjournment motion in the National Assembly against the arrest of about 270 political workers by intelligence agencies without meeting legal requirements.
