Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) is now facing serious challenges in Punjab as three of its MPAs are believed to be at loggerheads with party's central leadership. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, disgruntled PTI provincial assembly members have already threatened to form a forward bloc. Their major demand is not to reward those implicated in corruption in high government offices.
Well-placed sources within PTI Punjab who declined to be named told Business Recorder that three PTI Punjab assembly members got angry after some unelected people in party's central leadership began interfering in the work of party's elected representatives. A senior PTI leader, on condition of anonymity, said a handful of "opportunists" are trying to create rifts within the party for their own vested interests. "Everybody has self-respect and when you insult anyone he will not tolerate it even if you are close to the party chairman," he added.
He continued that some parasites are creating rifts within the party by interfering in their work. The people who failed to get elected in last year's general elections, he added, have managed to get close to Imran Khan. "We're facing enormous problems in implementing the manifesto of the party due to interference in our work by these people...we've brought the issue to the notice of the party chairman but it fell on deaf ears [and] ultimately we were forced to break our silence," he added.
