PTI Leadership Faces Internal Strife Over Protest Failure

Internal conflicts have emerged within the PTI leadership following the failure of a recent protest march, with demands for leadership changes to address the party's current crisis. The core committee has seen serious divisions, prompting calls for a new direction.
A woman parliamentarian from Peshawar highlighted the need for accountability over the protest's failure, which led to the imposition of governor’s rule in KP and further complications for jailed leader Imran Khan.
Ali Amin Gandapur accused a group of cutting off contact with Sohail Afridi’s team during the protest, leading to state intervention and emergency measures. He also criticized Mr Raja for allegedly hiding during the movement and demanded an apology for his remarks.
