Peshawar: In a significant development, Pervez Khattak, the Central Chairman of PTI-P, has announced his resignation from the leadership of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Parliamentarians (PTI-P), following poor performance in the recent general elections.
Pervez Khattak, while confirming his resignation, clarified that he is not completely withdrawing from politics but rather taking a temporary break from it. He expressed his commitment to remain engaged in political activities despite stepping down from the leadership of PTI-P.
This decision follows closely after Jahangir Tareen’s resignation from politics following his failure in the recent general elections, in which he lost in both NA-149 and NA-155 constituencies against PTI-backed independent and PML-N candidates.
On the other hand, Siraj-ul-Haq has also announced his decision to step down from the position of Ameer (chief) of Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan following the party’s dismal performance in the recent elections, where it failed to secure any National Assembly seats. The party only managed to clinch three seats in the Sindh and Balochistan assemblies, one of which was recently vacated by JI Karachi chief Hafiz Naeem ur Rehman.
Taking full accountability for the election setback, Siraj-ul-Haq announced his resignation from the role of party ameer in a post shared on social media platform X. He stated, “I acknowledge my responsibility for the defeat in the election and have consequently resigned from the leadership of Jamaat-e-Islami.”
This move marks a notable shift within the political landscape, where three leaders of Pakistani politics have stepped down from their positions following recent electoral setbacks.
