Insiders said that the former prime minister has issued directives from the jail for the expulsion of the members of parliament (MP), and issuing the notification accordingly. The party sources noted senators Zarqa Suhrawardy and Senator Faisal Saleem had been absent on the day of the 26th Constitutional Amendment. Moreover, the party had also issued show-cause notices to MNAs Aslam Ghuman, Riaz Fatyana, Zain Qureshi, Miqdad Ali Khan and Aurangzeb Kachhi for their absence. However, Qureshi will reportedly be exempted from the notification of the termination of party membership of the said lawmakers.\u00a0Play Video Sources further said that Imran has sent a message to the party leadership to do the needful. He emphasised that those who remained absent on the day of passage of the 26th Constitutional Amendment had no place in the party, as they had acted against the party line. The 26th Constitutional Amendment was passed last year in October and the PTI had issued show cause notices to its members of the National Assembly as well as two senators on suspicion of supporting the government on the amendment. PTI Additional Secretary General Firdous Shamim Naqvi, who had recently issued a notification of member of the National Assembly Sher Afzal Marwat\u2019s expulsion from the party, has alleged that the lawyer-turned-politician had been spreading chaos in the party. Speaking on a private TV channel, Naqvi said that the expelled MNA did not understand the matter and played with the dignity of whoever he wanted. \u201cMarwat is spreading chaos in the party and does not stop even when the party stops him. The PTI parliamentary party will take the action to de-seat him,\u201d he made it clear. The disgruntled former PTI member, Marwat\u00a0was dismissed from the party due to his continued violation of party discipline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pakistan(National Times)- ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan has reportedly decided to expel the legislators from the party who skipped the parliament session to pass the 26th Constitutional Amendment.
