Pakistan
Barrister Gohar condemns them
LAHORE (Dunya News) – In a setback for PTI, two of its senators have decided to vote the coalition government in passing the 26th constitutional amendment package, Dunya News reported here on Saturday.
Senator Faisal and Senator Zarka will vote for constitutional amendment bill in the Senate.
Talking to the media, PTI Barrister Gohar has confirmed that the two senators will go against the party in the voting process in the Senate.
“We condemn their act. This is not a democracy to pick people for vote.
“Our members will join the parliament proceeding and we do hope that they will support the PTI against the government,” Barrister Gohar said.
He said PTI founder appreciated Maulana Fazlur Rehman for his efforts to forge consensus on the constitutional bill, with the consultation of the PTI.
Barrister Gohar said constitutional package lacked consensus, adding, “The draft PTI received was not an agreed constitutional package.”
