Islamabad [Pakistan], September 16 : The leaders of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) held discussions with Maulana Fazl-ur-Rehman after the government refused to take the chief of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam Fazl (JUI-F) into confidence about constitutional modification.

According to sources close to the situation, PTI has spoken with the leader of the JUI-F, and there has been no resolution to the issues about constitutional revisions between Maulana Fazlur Rehman and the government.
