There was a consensus on the need to resolve the ongoing issue expeditiously in the best national interest," a statement issued by the PM's office said.The government did not give further details about the meeting but the army has already asked the two sides to end the crisis through negotiations. Qadri, who gave a 48-hour ultimatum to Sharif to step down, warned today that either the government steps down in 23 hours, or blood would be spilled.
