An on-going rally against the termination of Javed Naseem is being held in Peshawar, claiming Javed Naseem to be an ‘ordinary man’ on Monday.
Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan terminated MPA Javed Naseem from his party last week, for supporting a rival candidate in the Senate elections, according to sources.
PTI information secretary Shireen Mazari said that Imran Khan has suspended the party membership of deviant PTI MPA, Javed Naseem, while a letter seeking suspension of his membership of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Assembly has also been forwarded to Speaker Asad Qaisar.
The PTI chairman has also recommended the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to suspend the provincial assembly membership of Javed Naseem.
Naseem was elected as MPA from PK-3 Peshawar on the ticket of PTI.
On the other hand, Speaker Asad Qaisar confirmed to have received the letter by the party chairman and said that a reference will be forwarded to the ECP tomorrow, seeking suspension of the deviant party MPA.
He has also sought a legal opinion on the issue from the advocate general KP.
Asad Qaisar said that he will try to prevent Naseem from casting his vote in the Senate elections, if the law provided room for it.
