Social media users are praising the former senator.
Khokhar had said that he had “gladly” agreed to resign from the upper house after a senior party leader had conveyed the leadership’s unhappiness with his “political positions”.
In a series of bombshell tweets, Khokhar wrote, “Met a senior leader from the party today. He conveyed that the party leadership wasn’t happy with my political positions and wanted my resignation from the Senate. I gladly agreed to resign.”
