Cracks appear in Sindh PTI

HYDERABAD, May 30: The Sindh chapter of the Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaf appears to be in disarray as its general secretary Dr Hassan Raza Memon claims the party’s Sindh council has expressed no confidence in its president Nadir Akmal Leghari.

Addressing a news conference along with vice-president Amanullah Khan Musakhel and regional organiser Imran Alvi at the press club here on Wednesday, he described Legahari as remnant of Gen Musharraf’s regime and appealed to PTI chairman Imran Khan to dissolve all bodies in Sindh and hold fresh elections before June 22 public meeting.

He said that two other office-bearers Imran Ismail and Firdaus Shamim were also damaging the party’s image.

Mr Leghari, he said, unlawfully issued a directive, removing him as general secretary and Sarwar Rajput as information secretary without issuing show-cause notices and holding Sindh council meeting.

The PTI chief had dissolved all bodies in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab, therefore, Sindh chapters should also be dissolved and elections be held.

He said that Dr Arif Alvi’s actions were damaging the party.
