Lahore, Pakistan: After the release of former First Lady Bushra Bibi from Adiala Jail and her decision to stay in CM House Peshawar instead of her residences in Zaman Park Lahore or Banigala once again testified that Imran Niazi family is facing chaos within the ranks.
Party circles claim three groups are competing Imran Niazi is aware of this whole situation but is unable to do anything and his sisters are not ready to talk with his wife. After her release, Bushra Bibi reached Islamabad Banigala directly from Adiala Jail and it was thought that she would stay here, but an impression was also given that she would go to Zaman Park Lahore. However, Bushra Bibi went straight to Peshawar from Banigala. This decision has deepened PTI’s disarray and internal disunity and provided evidence of division within the party. PTI insiders have said that the party did not like her going straight to Peshawar to stay in the Chief Minister’s House. This situation gave an impression that she was insecure in Islamabad and the most trustworthy person for her is CM KP Ali Amin Gandapur.
After the release of Bushra Bibi, going to Peshawar is being considered as an unusual move and this is the reason why the central leadership of PTI has taken this matter seriously and called a meeting of the political committee. All is not going well between the central leadership of PTI and Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Ali Amin Gandapur. The central leadership is suspicious of the politics of Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa but does not express it openly.
According to political observers, this is the reason why PTI’s central leadership has expressed concern, especially since Bushra Bibi did not consult them or tell them about it, even though they have full confidence in her. PTI insiders have also confirmed that the central leadership had issued instructions to Bushra Bibi to move to Lahore Zaman Park after staying in Banigala for some time, but she left for Peshawar.
Sources also say that not only the central leadership but also the founder of PTI had clear instructions that Bushra Bibi should go to Lahore Zaman Park after her release. Even earlier, the chaos in the party and Bushra Bibi’s interest in party affairs came to the fore when WhatsApp messages between Rauf Hasan and Aleema Khan revealed a war of words between Aleema Khan and Bushra Bibi. After the release of Bushra Bibi, Maryam Wattoo who was present outside Adiala Jail strongly criticized party leadership stating that PTI leadership had no role in the release of Bushra Bibi. Given the above-mentioned situation, the central leadership of PTI has also called a meeting of the central leadership in which to consider this matter. According to political circles, Bushra Bibi wants to consolidate her leadership over the party with the help of Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur.
