PTI’s Barrister Ali Saif has said the party has decided to sit in the opposition in the Centre and Punjab in accordance with instructions of party founder Imran Khan.

Talking to the media after visiting the Qaumi Watan Party in Islamabad, Saif said: “We decided to sit in opposition despite the reality that if we received seats according to our votes and the results were not changed then maybe today we might have been in the Centre with 180 seats. Form 45 is the evidence that our candidates won.”
