The political landscape of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) is yet again experiencing a significant upheaval due to the criticism levied by Sher Afzal Marwat; shedding light on the deepening fracture lines within the party.

This criticism has created a looming sense of impending political turmoil and uncertainty as internal rifts become more apparent.

With someone like Mr Marwat questioning the decision of the party’s founder in appointing top leadership, this development has sparked debates and discussions about the future direction of the party and the implications for its leadership.

The absence of Mr Khan, during this time of internal strife, has further exacerbated the situation, as no one-page narrative or cohesive message is coming from the party leadership to address the issues at hand.

The deepening fracture lines within PTI have highlighted a lack of unity and cohesion among party leaders, which has the potential to weaken the party’s position in the political arena. The differing viewpoints and conflicting agendas have made it challenging to present a united front and tackle issues effectively.

It is crucial for PTI to address these internal divisions and work towards fostering unity and solidarity among its members. Without cohesive and harmonious leadership, the party risks losing credibility and support from both its base and the general public.

How do they expect to take on a myriad of legal challenges if there’s no unified line or confidence in the party’s decisions? The recent elections have shown that a significant part of the voter base still believes in their message but Mr Marwat and the rest of Mr Khan’s lieutenants would have to realise that election season is over and they cannot rely on politicking alone to enjoy the support of the masses.

From knocking on appropriate forums to resolve controversies related to their mandate, deciding which side of the benches they wish to sit on and henceforth, trying their utmost best to deliver on the campaign promises, there’s a lot that needs to be done. Tragically for these firebrand leaders, brewing trouble in the paradise is the worst way to go about it. *
