Gandapur defiant: ‘No one can dare to ban PTI’

As the federal government finds little support amongst allies for its recent controversial move to ban the single largest party in the National Assembly by number of seats, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur clapped back at the government saying, “No one can dare to ban the PTI.”

The statement was said in a press conference in Peshawar yesterday while visiting the supreme Command Post Kohati Gate with the Peshawar commissioner, the KP Assembly speaker, the CCPO, and others to review security arrangements for Muharram processions.

Gandpur remarked that the current rulers “stole the mandate” to get into power referring to the ruling coalition federal government.

“They are talking about banning a political party [PTI] that secured the highest number of votes,” said the Chief Minsiter criticising the government.
