KARACHI:

Pakistan Tehreek Insaf (PTI) on Thursday announced to initiate disqualification process against four Sindh Assembly members who had voted in favour of PPP candidate in senate election against the party policy.

Leader of the Opposition in Sindh Assembly, Haleem Adil Sheikh, PTI parliamentary leader in the assembly, Khurram Sherzaman, and other MPAa, announced while talking to media at Sindh Assembly building, that PTI will expel the MPAs from the party and will also initiate legal proceedings for their disqualification under article 63-A of the constitution of Pakistan.

They argued that it was in the knowledge of Speaker Sindh Assembly that who had cast their votes and he was legally bound to take action as per constitutional provisions.

Haleem said that though PTI and all the opposition parties had decided to boycott the polling for vacated seat of senate. MPAs not only violated the party decision but also voted against the nominated candidate of the party. PPP once again disgraced democratic norms and indulged in horse trading, he alleged and remarked that the speaker should be ashamed of whatever happened in the august house.

Haleem, commenting on affinity of some opposition parties said that all the thieves, robbers and thugs have gathered in Islamabad. Prime Minister Imran Khan spoke to the hearts of the people in Sindh Governor House yesterday, he said. Loyalty of all the MNA's of PTI is intact with PM Imram Khan and nobody is going against the party line while all the allies of PTI have also reassured their support to the PM, Haleem said.

He said that the entire nation has already expressed confidence on Prime Minister Imran Khan. Opposition's attempts for horse trading will bear no fruit and horse trading culture will come to end while their no confidence motion will certainly fail, he said and added that PM has also hinted stringent action against the gang of robbers after failure of no trust move and Asif Zardari would be the first to be made accountable. "That's why legs of Bilawal Zardari started trembling who is protesting in Islamabad while keeping lights turned off so that people could not see their failed march," Haleem observed.
