He sounded critical of PTI policy to focus mere on PS-155 provincial constituency and neglecting the National Assembly seat.

The national and provincial seats had fallen vacant after MQM MNA Rehan Hashmi resigned from NA-245 and MPA Dr Arshad Vohra from PS-115 when the party assigned them key positions in the upcoming local government system after the Dec 5 polls.
Meanwhile, PTI leaders called an emergency press conference following withdrawal of their candidate in favour of MQM, however it was cancelled as PTI workers scuffled with each other over some issue.
