Ayesha Gulalai, the disgruntled MNA of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), has said the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) could only manage to pull a shocking victory in the recently held Lodhran by-election against the Imran Khan-led party because of her.

Speaking to reporters outside the Parliament House in Islamabad on Thursday, she said deposed prime minister Nawaz Sharif did not even visit the NA-154 constituency to run the election campaign for his party, Express News reported.

“On the other hand, I led an election campaign on behalf of the ruling party to mend the public opinion against the PTI and reveal the party’s true face in front of people of Lodhran,” said the MNA.

“My electioneering received people’s approval that led to PTI candidate Ali Tareen’s eventual defeat,” she said.

Ali Tareen – the son of Jahangir Tareen who was disqualified by the Supreme Court for being ‘dishonest’ – was overwhelmed by PML-N’s Peer Iqbal Shah in February 12 by-election.

Shah bagged 116,590 votes while the young Tareen managed to grab 91, 230 votes – nearly the same that Siddiq Baloch of the PML-N had secured in the Dec 2015 by-election against Jehangir Tareen.

Gulalai further said that she will make an important announcement regarding launching her own faction of PTI on Friday.

On August 1 last year, Gulalai had accused Imran and his ‘gang’ of sending lewd text messages to women workers, saying they were being constantly harassed within the party.

The PTI, after serving her show-cause notice, moved the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to de-seat her on charges of defecting the party. The commission, however, dismissed the reference to de-seat the MNA, elected on a women’s reserved seat.

Why is she still on a PTI seat!? Especially now that she herself admits campaigning against her own party o_O

She actively worked against her own party. That would be grounds to sack her instantly.

PML-N offered me Senate ticket in exchange for maligning army: Ayesha Gulalai


MNA Ayesha Gulalai has claimed that the ruling PML-N had offered her a ticket for the upcoming Senate elections, but she turned down the proposal as it came with the requirement that she speak ill of the country's armed forces.

Speaking to reporters outside Parliament House on Friday, the dissident leader alleged that the Sharif family has an agenda against the judiciary and the army, which she termed the "only institution" working for the country.

"Talking against institutions is tantamount to treason in my view," she said, adding that PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif appeared even more "dangerous" to her than her former boss, PTI chairman Imran Khan, whom she had last year accused of harassment.

"Imran Khan is an emotional man who shoots himself in the foot — [but] this man [Nawaz] is a cunning man who strikes the army and judiciary with the axe," she said.

"Does Nawaz Sharif think it is okay for the judiciary to hold others accountable, but he should never be touched? she asked.

Gulalai alleged that the PML-N had urged her to malign the armed forces in exchange for a ticket for the March 3 Senate polls, but refused the offer as it violated her sense of patriotism.

She alleged that Sharif had been using "shameful" language to target the same army that had been tackling external and internal challenges faced by Pakistan and losing lives along the way.

Downplaying the PML-N victory in the NA-154 by-poll in Lodhran, she said the ruling party had won the elections because the people of the area "had no options".

Gulalai then turned her guns on her former party, saying the PTI had faced defeat in the NA-154 by-elections due to its "politics of corruption". PTI has swayed away from its original vision, she further said.

PML-N to sue Gulalai
The PML-N has decided to take legal action against Gulalai over her allegations against the party and Nawaz Sharif, a party spokesman said.

Gulalai's allegations are "shameful, laughable, baseless and based on falsehood", the spokesman said, challenging her to name to the person who according to her had offered her a ticket for the Senate elections.

Earlier, while responding to Gulalai's allegations, PML-N Information Secretary Mushahidullah Khan in a statement said she had no significant role in the country's political arena that would merit her being offered a Senate elections ticket.

"Gulalai should first raise herself to a level in politics that would merit the PML-N offering her a ticket," he said.

Mushahidullah brushed off Gulalai's accusations, saying that the PML-N has a queue of prominent people waiting to be awarded tickets for the elections.

Alleging that Gulalai's only claim to fame was the scandal surrounding inappropriate text messages allegedly sent to her by Imran Khan, the PML-N leader claimed that Gulalai was "playing in the hands of the same people as Imran Khan, [PAT chief] Tahirul Qadri and [AML chief] Sheikh Rashid".
