Two PML-N leaders join PTI
LODHRAN (Dunya News) - Two former PML-N lawmakers from the Lodhran district on Monday have joined PTI and they met with former Prime Minister Imran Khan at his residence in Bani Gala.
According to details, former PML-N MNA Pir Iqbal Shah and former MPA Pir Amir Shah have decided to join PTI after PML-N decided to give party tickets to dissident PTI MPAs.
“Loyal party members not required to PML-N now, the party is now awarding tickets to defecting members and turncoats,” Pir Iqbal Shah said.
It is Pertinent to mention that Pir Iqbal Shah, a former MNA, had defeated Jahangir Tareen’s son Ali Tareen in a by-election in 2018.
Furthermore, according to reports, PML-N had tried to stop Iqbal Shah and Amir Shah from quitting the party. Punjab Chief Minister Hamza Shehbaz had reportedly also expressed his disappointment at PML-N for failing to convince Iqbal Shah and Amir Shah.
