Akbar S. Babar, a founding member of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), extended a significant offer to the party’s founder chairman, Imran Khan, urging for collective action to salvage and reorganize the party.
Speaking at a press conference in Islamabad, he said that the party is at critical juncture, highlighting the urgent need for reform.
Babar underscored the importance of transparent intra-party elections and lamented the leadership’s reluctance to engage in the process. He expressed concerns that PTI could face irreparable damage if crucial reforms were not implemented.
The founding PTI member proposed a collaborative effort, suggesting the nomination of representatives from both sides to spearhead necessary changes.
In his offer to Imran Khan, Babar outlined a framework for cooperation, urging the nomination of representatives and lawyers from both factions to develop Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the party. He emphasized the need for reconciliation and unity, labeling it as the last opportunity to rescue PTI from further deterioration.
He also called for an investigation by the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) into the intra-party election process, highlighting the impact of poor decisions and leadership deficiencies within PTI. Despite his critical stance, Babar clarified that his intentions were not adversarial but rooted in a genuine desire to see PTI thrive.
He reflected on PTI’s journey, acknowledging its past successes but lamenting its deviation from its original path. Babar concluded by reaffirming his commitment to PTI's ideals and expressed hope for its resurgence through concerted efforts and principled leadership.
