PTI leader and lawyer Sher Afzal Marwat today said that the intra-party election of the party will be held within 15 days.
“We have to activate and make our party functional,” talking to media outside the Islamabad High Court (IHC), Marwat said.
“I am advising PTI workers to participate in party election. I will support those who want to contest from our platform,” he said.
He said Omar Ayub, Barrister Gohar and others have not joined the Sunni Ittehad Council owing to the PTI’s intra-party election.
