PTI leader Asad Qaiser has said that his party has started consultations regarding filing a reference against the Chief Election Commissioner Sikandar Sultan Raja, adding that his party was ready to fight the legal battle against the electoral body’s chief. “We would use the legal option against the Chief,” Qaiser said while speaking to a private TV channel. He said consultations regarding the inclusion of the Public Accounts Committee were ongoing.
On the other hand, PTI leader Asad Qaiser has raised doubts about whether incarcerated party founder Imran Khan has approved the list of candidates put forth by the party for the upcoming senate elections. When asked whether he was satisfied that genuine people were coming to the Senate and the picks were made Imran Khan, he said: “I don’t really understand [what’s going on]. I don’t know if Imran approved it or not. I don’t want to get into it.
On the other hand 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.
