The PTI political committee has denied any "factionalism" or "division" within the party, emphasizing that all members are united under Imran Khan's leadership, ideology, and mission. The committee warned that action would be taken against any member who violates party discipline or policy. The meeting discussed imprisonment of PTI founder Imran Khan and his family members, arrests of party leaders and workers, and issues related to key leaders in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
The committee stressed the importance of maintaining party discipline and involving parliamentarians, the parliamentary group, and other stakeholders in consultations. They also demanded the release of detained PTI members, including Afridi, Swati, and MPAs, and called for full implementation of Supreme Court orders regarding Imran Khan's medical treatment, regular updates from his family, and provision of facilities for family meetings.
The committee condemned arrests based on political differences and condemned alleged raids at residences of former opposition leaders, describing them as reprehensible acts. They addressed terrorism and the economy, stating that while terrorism is a national scourge, actions against it should not be used for political vendettas.
Concerns were raised over rising inflation, petroleum prices, and electricity bills, with the committee seeking appropriate medical facilities and family meetings for Imran Khan and his family.
