Disgruntled PTI leaders demand KP CM's resignation in letter to Imran Khan

PESHAWAR: Disgruntled leaders of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf have sent a list of their grievances to the party chairman Imran Khan, demanding that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Pervez Khattak and other provincial ministers resign over their poor performance.

The letter added that if the CM or other ministers refuse to resign the party should take action against them.

It added that the irrigation budget should be cut by half.

 The disgruntled leaders pressed the PTI chairman to take action against out-of-merit appointments in the government. They said that the 876 illegal appointments in the prison ministry should be removed.

The movement to oust the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chief minister has gained strength as Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan has given the task to appease disgruntled party members to senior party leader Jehangir Khan Tareen.

The sources said that Tareen had assured the chairman of the party that he would remove the complaints of the disgruntled PTI members.

On the other hand, the displeased party members threatened to contact party activists if their concerns were not removed till July 29.

The sources further said that earlier Imran Khan had given the task of satisfying the displeased party members to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Chief Minister Pervaiz Khattak, who termed their reservations baseless after which the task had been given to Jehangir Tareen.
