PESHAWAR: A key figure among the disgruntled MLAs of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI), former Speaker of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly Mushtaq Ghani, has voiced strong criticism of the current protest strategy.
In a media interview, Ghani stated that a homeopathic approach to protests would not lead to Imran Khan’s release. He revealed that Chief Minister Muhammad Sohail Afridi has planned a protest outside the National Assembly on June 10. Ghani warned that if the Chief Minister proceeds with this plan, he may not return.
The dissatisfied members also threatened to complicate the provincial government’s affairs during the budget process. They indicated that if the Chief Minister does not visit Imran Khan in jail, they will withdraw their support for the government’s budget approval.
Ghani emphasized that his group consists of over 30 MLAs. However, he clarified that they are not personally opposed to any individual or the Chief Minister; their primary goal is to take substantial steps for the release of the PTI founder.
