Bilawal Blames PTI for KP Crisis, Offers Talks Again
Published On 14 Oct, 2026
9 News HD: Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has criticised Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) over the political situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and has once again offered to hold talks to help resolve the crisis.
Bilawal described PTI’s actions over the KP government situation as a “political suicide attack.” He also said he was ready to speak with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif about ending the emergency in the province if talks could help find a way forward.
The political tension has increased after the federal government imposed an emergency in KP. The move has faced strong opposition from PTI, which has rejected the decision and raised concerns about the future of its elected provincial government.
Bilawal’s latest statement shows that he wants political dialogue to remain an option despite the growing differences between the parties. He has offered to help bring the sides closer and discuss possible steps to reduce tensions.
However, the offer comes at a time when the federal government and PTI remain divided over the emergency and the province’s political future. It is not yet clear whether the parties will agree to sit together or what conditions they may set for talks.
The situation in KP has become a major political issue, with questions about the role of the federal government, the provincial administration and the use of constitutional powers at the centre of the debate.
Bilawal’s renewed offer may open a path for discussion, but any progress will depend on whether the political parties are willing to engage with each other and find common ground.
