PTI’s Musarrat Cheema has said that it would be a great achievement if the current coalition government completed “even five months”. In a post on X, she criticised Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz for conducting “photoshoots” while assessing rate lists of items in markets. Meanwhile, PTI leader Ali Zafar has said party founder Imran Khan was informed about the party’s decision to join the Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) after it was taken.
In a conversation with Dawn News show InFocus, Zafar said the decision was taken that the PTI should go with a party which contested the general elections and had a member in Parliament. “We wanted to join a party for the reserved seats,” he said. Confirming PTI leader Sher Afzal Marwat’s remarks on the issue, Zafar said Imran had decided to join the Majlis Wahdat-i-Muslimeen previously but the decision was changed.—INP
