PTI leader Sher Afzal Marwat has said the party is paying the cost of two wrong decisions.

Speaking on Geo News show Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath, he said the first major mistake was committed when party founder Imran Khan gave instructions for a political alliance with the Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam Sherani.

He said the second major mistake was the announcement of the inclusion into the Majlis Wahdat-i-Muslimeen, adding that some people gave a sectarian colour to the issue and gave threatening messages to the PTI leadership.

Later, Marwat said the PTI suddenly decided to join the Sunni Ittehad Council.

“These are two wrong decisions and their culprits should be determined because we lost more than 80 seats due to them.”
