PTI to decide on resignations within two to three days: Fawad

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PT) leader Fawad Chaudhry has said that the party will make a decision on quitting provincial assemblies by Wednesday or Thursday.

Talking to the media here on Monday, the former federal minister said 64 per cent of the seats would fall vacant after the resignation of PTI lawmakers from provincial assemblies.

He added that elections would have to be held on 64 per cent of the seats.

They PDM, he said, won’t agree to hold elections but the PTI would make them to do so.

Fawad said it won’t make any difference if no-confidence motions are introduced in provincial assemblies.

Meanwhile, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Central Secretary General Asad Umar lashed out at the imported government for destroying the industries in short span of six months due to its flawed short term cosmetic measures.

In a statement on Monday, PTI Secretary General said that the imported government ruined the IT industry, which was growing at more than 30%, now with zero growth.

Asad Umar stated that he met two guys one from the IT sector and another from textile.

He said that they both narrated horror stories of the devastation that has destroyed their industries in the last 6 months. “The future of the country made hostage to the greed and ambition of a corrupt elite,” he added.

He stated that to artificially control dollar rate and payments against contracts are being withheld that badly tarnished the trust of major global players. “Desperate short term measures destroying future, as the IT industry which was growing at over 30% now with zero growth. Stop this nightmare now,” he added.

Talking about Azam Swati arrest, Asad Umar said that there was a clear decision of the Supreme Court that there cannot be lodged more than one FIR for a single charge. So, he said under which law more than a dozen FIRs have been registered against Azam Swati? “How long will the Supreme Court watch the human rights violation as a silent spectator,” he questioned.

Asad Umar said: “History tells everything, as neither history can be threatened nor history can be stopped.” He said that even history cannot be put in jail; hence now history would tell all. Who did what, why, for whom, all will be revealed now,” he added.
