SIALKOT: The video of a youth from Multan questioning PTI’s Sikander Hayat Bosan over his performance in his own constituency went viral a couple of days ago. Bosan, a PML-N defector following the dissolution of the assemblies joined the PTI during the past month. Although the initially awarded ticket by the party was later withdrawn when the PTI faced the wrath of its party workers for giving poll tickets to turncoats, the situation is nothing new for political parties here.
As candidates and turncoats are selected while completely ignoring their performance in their respective constituencies, the surprising aspect of the recent incident is the young from the area who were seen questioning a political figure who has been in the game since long. It was possibly due to this pressure that led to the PTI withdrawing its nomination of Bosan.
