LAHORE (Channel News)- For breaking party rules, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) fired 22 leaders from South Punjab on Tuesday.

Under Omar Ayub, the PTI Secretary General’s signature, a notification was released. Former Punjab chief minister Sardar Usman Buzdar, Sardar Muhammad Khan Leghari, Khusro Bakhtiar, Javed Akhtar Ansari, Farooq Azam Malik, and Muhammad Akhtar Malik all had their memberships with the PTI canceled.

The PTI also ejected Salman Khan, Syed Nadeem Shah, Ehtishamul Haq, Bahawal Khan Abbasi, Sabeen Gul, Mian Shafi Muhammad, Syed Muhammad Asghar Shah, Mian Tariq Abdullah, Muhammad Afzal, Ehsanul Haq, Saleem Akhtar, and Muhammad Zaheeruddin Khan Alizai.

The party also expelled Akram Kanu, Mohiuddin Solangi, Makhdoom Afkarul Hassan, and Raja Muhammad Saleem.

Mahmood Khan, the former chief minister of Punjab, was one of 22 politicians whose membership in the PTI was revoked on Saturday.

The change happened after Khattak established the PTI MPs’ breakaway faction. Shafiq Afridi, Ziaullah Bangash, Ishtiaq Urmar, Iqbal Wazeer, Yaqoob Sheikh, and Wilson Wazeer were other party leaders who had been expelled.

Omar Ayub Khan, the secretary general of the PTI, gave the defections notice.

After leaving the original party earlier this month, Khattak established his own political organization.
