Expressing her thoughts, Firdous hoped the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) will take notice of the intra-party polls. "The PTI intra-polls are against the constitution and law," Firdous added.
"The ECP should take strict action against the PTI over the intra-party polls," she said.
Firdous talked about the appointment of Barrister Gohar Ali Khan as the PTI chairman. "The appointment of Barrister Gohar as the PTI chief without any process is against the party's manifesto and democratic traditions," she lamented.
