PTI spokesperson Raoof Hassan has said party founder Imran Khan had given the go ahead to the party for the formation of the government with the Majlis Wahdat-i-Muslimeen in the Centre and Punjab.

“And in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, for reserved seats, we will form a coalition with the Jamaat-i-Islami,” he said.

“Imran has a clear message that formation of a government is the right of who had won the elections,” he told a press conference in Islamabad. Hassan said “power wielders” must introspect their actions.
