PTI serves notices on 2 MPAs for violating their party discipline

KARACHI: The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Thursday issued show-cause notices to two of its Sindh Assembly members for violating the party discipline in the Senate elections.
PTI MPA Aslam Abro and Shehr Yar were issued the notices by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Central Standing Committee on Discipline and Accountability Salman Aftab.
The disciplinary committee issued the MPAs notices for making accusations against party leadership “which went viral on social, print and electronic media”. Their actions are labelled as being against the PTI’s policy and its constitution.
According to the notification, the matter has been referred to the PTI’s Western Region Standing Committee on Discipline and Accountability for taking action against the two MPAs within seven days.
The notice comes two days after the heated Sindh Assembly session that left lawmakers from the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and PTI close to blows. The two opposing parties hurled accusations against each other after PTI MPA Karim Bux Gabool alleged that the PTI had awarded tickets for the polls in exchange for money.
Gabool and Shar had also released videos on social media stating that they would not be voting for their party’s candidates and that they would vote in favour of the PPP candidates. – TLTP
