Rift continues: Action called on CM’s harsh words

PTI lawmakers said Khattak used abusive language in media reports against MPAs

PESHAWAR: Disgruntled lawmakers of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf have criticised Chief Minister Pervez Khattak for using abusive language against MPAs Yasin Khalil and Qurban Ali. They called a meeting on September 4 in Islamabad to ask the party chief to take notice of the matter.

While talking to The Express Tribune on Wednesday, Khalil, who is among the disgruntled lawmakers, objected to the use of abusive language by the chief minister against him and Ali in news reports.

He was of the view that it was unjust for the chief minister to be sitting at such a high position and using insulting words against party members.

Khalil demanded that PTI Chairperson Imran Khan take notice of the issue, saying they would meet him on September 4 at MNA Dawar Kundi’s residence in Islamabad. He said they will also decide their future plan of action after the moot.
