Islamabad/ MIRPUR [AJK], (Parliament Times) : Prime Minister Azad Jammu and Kashmir State Sardar Tanveer Ilyas Khan has said that strict action would be taken against those who violate the party discipline.
“Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf believes in democracy and high moral values”, the PM said, adding that turncoats will not be tolerated in the party.
The PM directed the PTI office bearers to compile a list of all the councilors and issue show cause notices to them immediately.
Sardar Tanveer Ilyas Khan said that after 32 years, the PTI government has transferred power to the lower level by conducting local body elections under the vision of Chairman Imran Khan.
The PTI, he said had achieved landmark victory in local government elections. “The government will provide all out support to elected representatives and empower them fully”, he said.
” All the representatives elected on party ticket are highly honourable but it is regrettably noted that there have been complaints that a large number of PTI councilors did not follow the party policy during the recent local body elections on reserve seats”, the PM said adding that violation of discipline won’t not be tolerated in any case.
“The party will issue show-cause notices to all such people and after that further action will be taken under local government election rules”, he said.
He said that adherence to discipline and party policy was mandatory for all.
Meanwhile, the PM expressed his deep sense of shock over the sad demise of renowned scholar Zia Mohiuddin and extended his heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family.
