In a significant development, former Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Jahangir Tareen has made the decision to establish a new political party.

This decision comes as a growing number of members have been resigning from PTI in the aftermath of the May 9 unrest.

According to sources, Jahangir Tareen will assume the role of patron-in-chief in the new party, while several influential dissatisfied leaders from PTI, including Aleem Khan, are set to join.

Additionally, prominent leaders from Karachi, Inner Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Balochistan have reportedly reached out to Jahangir Tareen.

Furthermore, political families from Dera Ghazi Khan, Rajanpur, Muzaffargarh, Wahari, and Multan are also expected to align themselves with this newly formed party.

Sources reveal that Jahangir Tareen, along with companions, has completed the initial groundwork for the new party.

The party secretariat in Lahore has been established in preparation for its operations as well.

In recent days, Jahangir Tareen has engaged in discussions with over 70 political leaders from the PTI, indicating an active effort to garner support for the forthcoming party.

However, the official announcement and the final date of the party’s establishment have not yet been disclosed.
