PPP MPA who received show cause notice, hails from Bannu. PHOTO: FILE
PPP sent a show cause notice to its MPA Fakhr Azam Wazir, who was elected from PK-71 Bannu during the May elections. He is one of the four PPP MPAs in K-P.
The notice, signed by PPP Additional General Secretary Raza Rabbani, sought an explanation from Wazir on why he had violated party discipline and supported an advertising campaign in newspapers.
Wazir hails from the Dommel Tehsil in Bannu, which lies along the Indus Highway. The highway is the main route used by most Nato supplies.

There had been many incidents of party policy violation in the PPP. But we seldom see a show-cause, and that too this loud. Why?
@naeem khan Manhattan,Ks: Would you please permit a PTI law maker to reject PTI move for Nato supplies blockade if he decides? It is a party discipline matter and it is per law.
@Faisal:
Quit be so sentimental and philosophical there ol' buddy. Just stick to the argument and enlighten us on the difference between a Jalsi and a Dharna and why IK in a position of strength, at least in KPK is not advising the government he mentors to block the NATO supply line by force beyond Attock.
As for my intellect, trust me - its too hot for you to handle.
Adnan Siddiqi: IK has a lot of shame and guts as well, its just that he is trying for sold souls like you that nothing right is coming out. I am pretty much sure, Pakistan can never be a great and sovereign country till the time we've sellable intellects like you amongst us.
Using the precious and dwindling resources of KPK on hoardings and advertisement propagating an agenda of a political party! Way to go PTI. If IK has some shame to go along with a bit of audacity, he would order his CM to use all the provisional power at his disposal to forcibly block the NATO supply line inside KPK jurisdiction. But hey, taking such a step would mean saying adios to $500 million alms been given by USAID and European Union.
@ naeem Khan Manhattan Sir, the show cause notice served on Fakhar Azam Wazir has been signed by Raza Rabani who while authoring the 18th Amendment included a provision for strengthening the dynasty politics and dictatorship of party leader over the elected representatives in the name of restoring the 1973 constitution in its original shape.

@naeem khan Manhattan, seriously, get a life, what's wrong with Pakistan is you, you've left the country now stay out and keep your backwards comments to yourself
Is Fakhr Azam Wazir representing the PPP and Zardari or his constituents, if his constituents wants him to block the NATO supplies then he should listen to his constituents and not Zardari, Zardari did not appoint him, he was elected by his constituents. This is exactly what is wrong with Pakistani political parties and it's system, it is all about dynasty and nothing else. It is time that Pakistanis legislate the laws which gives more power to the elected representatives instead of some party head who has inherited the party. I say, have a primary elections in the party system and let the members of the party chose the best candidate like it is done in the US, keep the dictatorial powers of so called dynastic parties and it's inherited chiefs out of unfair influence over the candidates. In real democracy the elected represent the people and do what the people want them to do otherwise they will be out of the job, and not some one sitting in Karachi and pulling the strings.
