Summary Imran Khan, taking notice of internal conflicts in PTI, has called a meeting to address the issue
PESHAWAR (Dunya News) – Days after five of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) Members of National Assembly (MNAs) announced rebellion against Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Chief Minister (CM) Pervez Khattak, it has been brought to light that these MNAs have also gained the support of 15 to 20 Members of Provincial Assembly (MPAs) of the party in regards to voicing criticism against the CM, reported Dunya News on Wednesday.
Sources within PTI indicate that, the five MNAs of the party including Sajid Nawaz, Khayal Zaman, Dawar Khan Kundi, Amirullah Khan and Junaid Akbar have the backing of a number of provincial ministers who strongly believe that Khattak has not been able to bring a substantial change in the province.
Sources also state that the angry party workers have suggested a boycott of the provincial budget’s approval session. However, such a move can result in these MPAs being as declared unfit to remain public representatives
Earlier, PTI Chairman Imran Khan during his visit to Peshawar, directed Pervez Khattak to make improvements in the working of his cabinet but it seems that Khan’s orders backfired as a number of MNAs raised their concerns against Khattak.
Khan has taken notice of the internal conflicts within the party and has also called a meeting in order to address the issue.
