It should be noted that these rifts were evident in Jhelum after PTI chief Imran Khan addressed two different rallies at Dina and Jhelum city instead of a single rally. According to the notification, these office bearers were warned about making appointments on the basis of nepotism but the advice was ‘met on deaf ears’.
