LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Senator Talal Chaudhry claimed that after the November 24 protest, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) will ‘once again seek apology’, ARY News reported.
Speaking to the media, Talal Chaudhry claimed that there are various groups within the PTI which he said are fighting for control of the party.
“PTI, as a political entity, has become ‘orphaned,’ with no one to address its plight,” Senator Talal Chaudhry said.
He further asserted that after the November 24 protest, PTI would be forced to apologise once again. He accused PTI of being solely interested in political gains, rather than addressing important issues.
He remarked that the November 24 protest would just be another chapter in PTI’s long history of ‘futile protests’, adding that it is unclear when PTI’s final call would come.
The PML-N leader also went on to say that Bushra Bibi, the wife of PTI founder Imran Khan, is ‘attempting’ to seize control of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government, and accused her of misusing governmental powers
Senator Talal Chaudhry said that PTI’s ‘internal strife’ is not just about political control, but also personal conflicts. He said that scandals related to the Toshakhana (state gifts) and other controversial actions have now been exposed.
