He added that such steps raised serious questions about the democratic process, public representation and provincial autonomy.<\/p>\n<p>He said the political crisis in Pakistan was intensifying with each passing day. To steer the country out of political instability and confrontation, all political forces would have to sit together and seek a settlement of differences through dialogue in the national interest.<\/p>\n<p>The JI Islamabad chief said political crises could not be resolved through extraordinary measures or by restricting public representation.
