Islamabad: The leader of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Asad Umar Saturday completely parted ways with the party.
Asad Umar turned to social media website X and wrote: “After more than one decade in public life, I have decided to completely quit politics”.
As I had already stated publicly earlier that I disagree with the policy of confrontation with state institutions, and such a policy has led to a serious collision with state institutions, which is not in the interest of the country, he added.
Asad further: “I am resigning from basic membership of PTI”. He thanked all those who have supported him in public life.
In particular he thanked the NA 54 team and the voters who elected him twice.
I have tried my best to serve the constituency that I was elected from. May Allah's blessings shine upon the Pakistani nation, former leader of PTI stated.
