The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Wednesday issued a show-cause notice to former Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) chief minister and ex-party provincial president Pervez Khattak over allegations of inciting the party members to revolt.
PTI Secretary General Omar Ayub Khan issued the show-cause notice, reading: “It has come to the notice of the party leadership that you are contacting party members and inciting them to leave the party.
“In view of these reported activities, you are hereby called to explain yourself in writing within seven days of this notice. If your reply is unsatisfactory or you do not respond, further action will be taken as per party policy and rules.”

PTI Peshawar Deputy Secretary Information Khalid Khan Supari also revealed that Khattak was in contact with party leaders for the past several days and was trying to convince them to leave the party.
Khattak had served as the K-P chief minister as well as the defence minister during the PTI government in K-P and at the Centre.
It should be noted that Khattak announced his resignation from all PTI positions during a news conference in Islamabad last month. He condemned the incidents of May 9 and called for action against those who were responsible.
Subsequently, Khattak refuted reports of his separation from the PTI, asserting that he remained a part of the party but had resigned from his posts.
