[Dawn] A TRICKLE of information has started to flow about the all-party sanctioned and military-backed talks with the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP).Rana Sanaullah, the Punjab minister and one of the beacons of the governing PML-N, told the media that talks with the Death Eaters have started. But it would have been much better had he also specified which talks he was referring to.
This would have been significant because Rana Sanaullah is the man widely believed to have been the go-between in more than five years of delicate negotiations with the TTP and its affiliates that have contributed to keeping Punjab safe.
