He was issued a show-cause notice on Tuesday over loyalty probe
Islamabad: PTI MNA Zain Qureshi tendered his resignation as the party’s deputy parliamentary leader on Saturday amid an internal inquiry on the loyalty of certain lawmakers.
In a post on X today, he announced: “Based on my belief for a free and transparent inquiry and in recognition of the sentiment of our party supporters, I am resigning from my role as deputy parliamentary leader. I do so until and unless I have the confidence and trust of my party and our founding chairman, Imran Khan.”
Zain added that in the “interest of public transparency for all PTI supporters”, he had formally replied to his show-cause notice and provided a comprehensive account.
The former ruling party's central secretariat had issued show-cause notices to its NA lawmakers two days after the ruling coalition government-backed 26th Constitutional Amendment was passed in both the upper and lower houses of the parliament in the wee hours of October 21.
