“Very sad to hear about the passing away of Naeemul Haque. May his soul rest in peace. My profound condolences to the bereaved family and the PTI,” he said in a statement.
The CPNE president said that Naeemul Haque had played a pivotal role in strengthening the PTI and promoting a positive change in Pakistan as part of the party’s ideology.
