Istehqam-e-Pakistan Tehreek (IPT) leader, Firdous Ashiq Awan has termed the May 9 vandalism as political death of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) which resulted in emergence of IPT.
In a statement issued on Friday, she said that due to differences with PTI chief over his perspective, she stayed away from active politics for about two years.
Firdous Ashiq Awan said that till Chairman PTI was targeting his political opponents, she stood firm with him but when he turned the direction of his guns towards armed forces of Pakistan, she stepped back.
She said that there was economic, political instability in the country and everyone was in hatred with each other which was basic reason of our hardships.
The IPT leader further said that on May 9, monuments of martyrs were desecrated which was highly condemnable.
The key perspective of IPT was to stabilize the country and one cannot move ahead with attitude of obstinate and self-directed policies, she added.
She said that politics is not one sided game and it was like barter trade where decisions were taken keeping in view the prevailing circumstances.
Firdous said that currently engaged in developing the party’s infrastructure and membership will be the next step. IPT’s doors are opened for all victims of the PTI’s victims, she added.
