The Opposition Leader in Senate takes a strong stance by condemning the protests that unfolded on May 9, which involved acts of vandalism and arson at Jinnah House.
Islamabad: In a significant development, Shahzad Waseem, the Leader of the Opposition in the Senate, has firmly declared his commitment to remaining a member of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, even amidst a recent wave of resignations within the organization.
During a press conference held outside the Parliament on Saturday, Waseem took a strong stance by condemning the protests that unfolded on May 9, which involved acts of vandalism and arson at Jinnah House. He expressed his vehement disapproval of these events and called for those responsible to be held accountable.
"All those involved in the May 9 incident must be held accountable," Waseem emphasized. He further insisted on a thorough investigation into the matter and demanded strict action against the individuals responsible for the violence and destruction.
Responding to speculations about his party affiliation, Waseem clarified his position, stating that he remains a dedicated senator of the PTI. As the opposition leader, he underscored his firm denunciation of the events that transpired on May 9.
Rumors had circulated prior to the press conference, suggesting that Shahzad Waseem, along with several other PTI members, was considering leaving the party. However, he put an end to the speculation by reaffirming his unwavering loyalty to the PTI and his ongoing commitment to its principles and objectives.
The PTI, which has been experiencing a wave of resignations recently, will likely find solace in Shahzad Waseem's decision to stand by the party during this challenging time. His declaration of allegiance serves as a testament to the resilience and unity of the PTI amidst internal developments and external pressures.
