Grass not greener: PTI- heavyweights jumping ship (Kasur PTI president Out)

[A.M.S]

LAHORE:
Two politicians in central Punjab decided to abandon the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) last week.

Both had joined the PTI only last year after leaving the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q).

Gujranwala PTI President Waleed Akram Bhinder and his father, Shahid Akram Bhinder, on Tuesday joined the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).

Earlier, the Kasur PTI president Sardar Muhammad Tufail, a former MNA, and some other potential candidates had rejoined the PML-Q on Sunday.
The elder Bhinder has been an MNA. His son, Waleed, had hosted Imran Khan whenever he visited the district.

Shahid Bhinder told The Express Tribune he had committed a blunder in joining the PTI. He said Imran Khan had no plan to bring the change he promises. He said he preaches against corruption on one hand and joins his hands with the corrupt on the other side. He said, “Imran Khan asked the party to welcome Sheikh Rasheed before joining Rasheed’s public gathering in Rawalpindi. When pressure mounted from within the party, he disowned Rasheed.”

He said he had been elected on a PML-N ticket before joining the PML-Q and was returning to the “parent party.” He said a PML-N candidate had won the NA-97 seat. He hoped he would again be the party’s candidate from the constituency in the next election.

A PML-N handout on Tuesday said the two Bhinders had met with Nawaz Sharif and expressed trust in his leadership.

A PML-Q handout on Sunday announced Sardar Muhammad Tufail from NA-138, Chaudhry Ilyas from PP-175 and Sardar Amjad Tufail from PP-176 in Kasur District would be their party’s candidates in the next elections.Tufail had joined the PTI along with Rana Imtiaz and Rana Sarfaraz, in Kasur. They are considered rivals of the Punjab Assembly Speaker Rana Muhammad Iqbal Khan.

Shafqat Mehmood, the PTI central information secretary, said “it was a good sign. The turncoats have started leaving the party.” He said the opportunists leaving the party could not hurt it. “The PTI values its 10 million registered voters, not particular politicians,” he said.

Good..all the lotas are being exposed...
Now PTI will have the most loyal candidates

 

[F.O.X]

A Great news for PTI , it now being Cleansed

 

[tarrar]

Politicians who keep jumping from one party to another shows that these people are un trustable & they are a threat to everything. If they can sell themselves they can be bought again & again & again by someone who is willing to pay more.

PPP, PML-N, PML-Q, ANP, JUI & MQM are a direct threat to Pakistan.

 

[REHAN NIAZI FALCON]

thats good , dirt will be cleaned up slowly and steadily

 

[A.Rafay]

Good the people who are going back were traiters and awam dushman now the truth is coming out those lotas cant bear the party elections and good policies of Imran KHAN!

 

[Tiger Awan]

If they were so bad, why Pti allowed them in the first place

 

[Leader]

If they were so bad, why Pti allowed them in the first place

because its a National political party but once they realized that winning intra party election r not going to be easy for them, and that even winning election will not ensure tickets, as tickets will be issued on merit by parliamentary committee who would select 1 candidate from 5 officer bearer(who get elected from party elections) of that constituency for MNA, they saw no chances of getting a ticket so instead of being denied the ticket and asked to support the better candidate from the party who maybe a worker with no money, they decided to go back to their parent parties...

like Imran said if you want to leave, leave now, dont wait for the party elections, tickets will be given on merit, no matter what.

Here is a question for you ...

Why does N-League let go of people and then accept them back again and then let go and then accept them back again ?

Why was "Bhola" Sharif once BB's worst enemy, and eventually turned out to be her brother ?

Why did "Bhola" sharif once declare Bhutto the enemy, and now Bhola g, is Zardari's dear Friend.

 

[airmarshal]

Please leave!! Please!!!! Its a good thing that those who joined the party for their personal interest are leaving now. Its a great thing. And those who have doubts about staying in the PTI, they should also leave.

With PTI, Pakistanis wish a new beginning. And if you are a mafia-type politician, go find your refuge in PML-Q,PML-N and PPP.

 

[Dil Pakistan]

If they were so bad, why Pti allowed them in the first place

They were allowed in PTI (and to remain in PTI) as long as they follow PTI's revolutionary policies and renounce their past. Those who came in PTI with a hidden agenda have been exposed with these intra-party elections and are being shunted out.

Do not be fooled by interpreting all this only on its face value. These people were identified inside PTI as trouble makers and PTI did not like them. Therefore, they lost their credibility within party and could not hold their positions. Now they are changing the parties only to save their faces.

Can PTI make rule of not allocating tickets to lotas? Perhpas not, because PTI thrives on lotas, even PTI president is a Lota.

National party does not mean that you include the kind of people that you are fighting against


But wait, IK ( on a number of occasions ) said all those who joined him are good people. Is he that bad in reading the personalities ????????

Pti has redefined LOTA, its a person who leave Pti to join other parties not the one who leave other parties to join Pti
