Former Secretary General of PTI Jahangir Khan Tareen has urged PML-Q not to tease PTI and said that all their demands will also be accepted very soon.
ISLAMABAD: (Urdu Point/Pakistan Point News-Jan 23rd, 2020) “PML-Q won the seats due to adjustment with Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaaf,” said Jahangir Khan Tareen while urging the ally-party to be calm and cool.
In an interview with a local tv channel , Jahangir Khan Tareen—the former Secretary General of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaaf—has said that his party will address all the grievances of the PML-Q very soon.
The sources last week claimed that PML-Q—the close ally of the ruling PTI has demanded its share and power in the present government and has given one-week ultimatum to PTI government in Punjab.
More rigorous voices from within the ruling PTI were also coming which increased pressure on the PTI leadership to save Punjab government. Last week, Fawad Chaudhary said that PTI was under pressure because of Punjab government's failure to deliver. More pressure mounted on PTI government after flour and sugar crisis in the country.
The sources said that Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q)—the close ally of ruling Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaaf (PTI), was not happy with the ruling PTI as its law makers wanted more powers in the present political setup. PML-Q gave one-week ultimatum to the PTI leadership for its share in the Punjab government.
They said that PML-Q did not have problem with Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar but demanded the PTI leadership for its due share.
Chaudharys of Gujrat—the sources said—are now demanding the share, especially the part of the bureaucracy that is not under the control of Punjab CM Usman Buzdar, to have it under its control in Punjab.
They said that Punjab CM Buzdar was enjoying just a symbolic title and did not have actual powers as Punjab Chief Secretary and Punjab Police Chief reportedly take orders from Prime Minister Secretariat.
“Our demand is that our lawmakers should be empowered and nothing else,” a PML-Q leader said with the condition of anonymity on a question that whether they wanted the seat of Punjab CM.
“We are not taken on board regarding important decisions,” he added.
Monish Elahi also tweeted and said that they just wanted PTI to put its house in order with people leaking fake news.
The sources said PTI accepted the demands of the PML-Q regarding empowerment of its lawmakers in the present setup in Punjab and at the Federal level. For this purpose, the PML-Q gave one-week time to the PTI, they added.
