However, Qureshi said the party was still making a decision about what to do in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa since it is leading a coalition government in the province. He said the party would take its decision in this regard after consulting with its coalition partners.
“After examining the whole situation, PTI has decided to go with the politics of people and resign from national and provincial assemblies except K-P assembly,” said Qureshi.
"We are resigning from the National Assembly, Punjab Assembly, Balochistan Assembly and Sindh Assembly," Qureshi told reporters. However, he did not give a timeframe for submitting the resignations.
He went on to add that other than two or three members, all PTI members have submitted their resignations to the party. To a question, Qureshi said his party had not closed the doors on negotiation with the government, but the party felt the government is deceiving the nation in the name of negotiations. It is expected that AML’s Sheikh Rasheed and Jamshed Dasti may also resign from parliament.

please let us live and leave us PML n
At least this way PTI will not be part of corrupt system of tax evasion that has damaged country for 67 years and we are begging for more money from IMF. Inflation is touching new limits recently.
PTI is only looking for power and would not resign where they are in power. The elections were fair and square if they came to power. The elections were unfair and rigged if they only won a few seats. They would resign from every place where they are not in power. While IK is fighting for power why his party would members resign in KPK when they are having all perks? Are they going to resign from the senate as well? LOL
Please resign from KPK as well and put us out of our misery.
