PESHAWAR: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan has asked for the resignations of the party’s MNAs before an upcoming National Assembly session on August 4, Express News reported.

The MNAs will hand over their resignations to the party chief during a parliamentary meeting two hours before the NA session in Islamabad, according to PTI MNA Engineer Hamid Ul Haq.

On August 13 — a day before PTI’s ‘Azadi’ march on Independence Day — Khan will present the MNAs’ resignations to the NA speaker.

Haq also said that 17 members from Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) were committed to handing over their resignation to the party chief.

According to sources, the PTI chief is focusing on giving the government a final ultimatum to meet his demands.

Furthermore, it was revealed that Khan plans to hold a press conference after the NA session on August 4 to announce the options he is willing to give the government.

Sources say that if the demands are not met, the PTI would continue to hold their long march in the capital city.

This is good & IK is showing his honesty that he wants to deal with these incompetent & corrupt politicians for good.

IK & Dr. TUQ should not forget that PML-N, PPP & other corrupt political parties are united to save the corrupt & incompetent system which we know as DEMOCRAZY.

i don't see anything wrong here - but how the news has been sensationalize ---
Volunteers can be recruited for Traffic Warden duties - maintaining order - Crow Control - Access Control & Security Duties --- also provision of Emergency Response ---- totally justifiable action

And what about those who are already on strength and also paid to do this job daily? Why are you trying to spin the argument in such a way?

@PML-N KPK also responded to PTI's such move

no my dear I have no intention of doing so - infact by chance i visited the thread and saw your post hence I thought I should present the correct facts ----
anyhow - for the same reason Private Security Guards are hired even when Police and other LEA are in numbers and patrolling the streets ----
You just cannot expect the Police and Govt agencies to do the internal duties of an event ----
Also in case of an undesired event occuring anywhere else in the city - the procedure will be to divert the LEA to the place of event / incident hence leaving the Public Rally point insecure -- where Volunteers will play their role ---
Also It will be really hard to meet the manpower requirements during the prolonged journey ----
it happens everywhere in the world my dear --- Event Security , I suggest you look into it-----
If I recall correctly then there has been few cases where during Pope's visit to UK - G4S provided security personnel additional to LEA for Traffic & Security duties along the route of Pope ----
