Rasheed hoped that all matters with the TLP will be solved amicably during the second round of talks between the government and the proscribed organization.

On Sunday, Saad Rizwi, chief of banned Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) had directed his party workers to “immediately end Lahore sit-in and return home peacefully.”

Hafiz Muhammad Saad Rizvi in a letter written to Majlis-e-Shura (advisory council) of the party asked party workers to end the Lahore protest and disperse peacefully.

“Majlis-e-Shura (advisory council) members should surrender themselves before police,” said the banned TLP chief in a letter.
