UMERKOT: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Umerkot chapter developed cracks in their rank and file on alleged ill attitude of party’s member of National Assembly Lalchand Malhi towards Ghousia Jamat. It was surfaced at a press conference, addressed by PTI activists, disciples and devotees of Ghousia Jamat, whose spiritual leader is Shah Mehmood Qureshi. Advocate Zulfiquar Gaju, Yaqoob Arisar, Dr Shagufta Arbab Samejo, Dr Ali Nawaz Shahani and others lashed at Lalchand for not taking them into confidence in holding a rally, organized by PTI Umerkot in the wake of PM Nawaz disqualification. They accused him that he has always bisected them in party matters. They quoted that PTI has no standing in Umerkot and Tharparkar districts without devotees, followers and disciples of Shah Mahmood Qureshi. Lalchand has continuously ignored disciples of Qureshi in all party matters including development schemes which were granted to him on MNA’s quota. It is time to break silence and they would put their concern with the spiritual leader Qureshi and other party’s leadership. Yaqoob Arisar Ghousia Jamat leader alleged Lalchand has always been confined to his community. Dr Shagufta a founding member of PTI Umerkot told that Lal was not the leader of Malhi community, but Oad, Bheel, Kolhi minority communities also belonging to PTI.
