LAHORE:
A group of 15 members of Punjab Assembly belonging to the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has raised concerns over being neglected in the provincial cabinet expansion and also demanded a seat in the coming Senate elections.
The demand was made at a meeting of the PTI Humkhayal (like-minded) group at the residence of Punjab Assembly Member Taimur Lali on Tuesday. The group demanded that the reservations of its members should be addressed and the nomination of a candidate in the Senate elections should be made from their constituencies in the interest of the party and voters.
