explained that if Bosan wanted to leave the PTI, it would purely
his own decision.
Decisions of awarding ticket for elections was not an easy
job, he said and added that none other than PTI chairman Imran
Khan had to decide about party tickets and he would see eye
to eye with Mr Khan in this connection.

with Jehangir Tareen, adding that the latter was out of politics
and he saw no reason to have differences with him.

asserts illegally was a crime, adding that purchasing flats
in London and building castle in Dubai without money trail
were crimes.
Brushing aside allegations of awarding party tickets
through nepotism, Qursehi said that he always preferred
ideology over any relation for awarding tickets.
