Earlier today, PTI leader and lawyer Sher Afzal Marwat announced on Thursday that the party’s intra-party election will take place within 15 days.
Speaking to the media outside the Islamabad High Court (IHC), Marwat emphasized the need to activate and rejuvenate the party. He encouraged PTI workers to actively participate in the upcoming party election and pledged his support to those contesting from their platform.
Marwat noted that individuals like Omar Ayub, Barrister Gohar, and others refrained from joining the Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) due to the impending PTI intra-party election.
Accusing political parties of usurping their mandate with the help of the Election Commission and Returning Officers (ROs), Marwat vowed to continue the battle both within and outside the Parliament.
