The National Assembly Secretariat on Wednesday said that all members of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) will have to meet NA Speaker Ayaz Sadiq individually to verify their resignation statements on the dates allocated to them.
Earlier, PTI Vice Chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi had said that no lawmaker of the party would meet Sadiq individually.
Addressing reporters after a party meeting, Qureshi had said that the PTI had decided that its lawmakers would meet the NA speaker collectively.
Earlier, PTI leaders decided not to resign from the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly, where the party enjoys a majority. The decision was taken in a party meeting chaired by PTI Chairman Imran Khan.
In the meanwhile, Punjab Assembly Speaker Rana Muhammad Iqbal has summoned PTI’s Punjab MPAs on September 29 to verify their resignations.
In the first phase of verification, four PTI leaders including Nabeela Haqim, Malik Taimoor, Waheed Akhter Dogar and Rashid Hafeez have been summoned.
