Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan on January 17 expressed his reluctance to hold peace talks with Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) saying he lacks authority to do so, reports Dawn. Speaking at a press conference, Khan said he cannot hold talks with TTP as neither his party is in power at the centre nor he has any authority over the services. What powers we have because of which we are being asked to hold talks? he asked referring to the Government s proposal that Imran Khan and other leaders should hold talks with TTP. He said the All Parties Conference (APC) held on September 9 gave mandate to the Government to hold talks with the militants.
