ISLAMABAD: Caretaker Federal Minister for Information Murtaza Solangi said that it was an effort of the government to go towards the solution of the problem of protestors from Balochistan through negotiations.

In an interview with a private news channel, the minister said that it was desire of the interim set-up that the protestors should go back to their homes with dignity, honour and safety.
