Fauzia Kasuri, is amongst the very few founding members of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), today seems to have no value in PTI. Fauzia, who also gave up her US nationality so that she could participate in national elections as a candidate from PTI. However, ironically, some powerful families of Pakistani politicians who had joined PTI after its popularity, lobbied against her and she was not given a seat from PTI.
It should also be remembered that Fauzia had a very good friendship with Zahra Shahid Hussain (late) and both of them had liberal views. After Zahra Hussain’s murder, Fauzia has been further sidelined in the party.
Fauzia broke into tears when asked in a private TV talk-show program, News Beat by Paras about internal politics of PTI.
Fauzia is also disgruntled from the party and the people who seem to have over the party. Have a look at the following video and tweets of Fauzia.
Insafians..pls dont let PTI be a mafia that chokes voices of concern/questions.. All are accountable and must answer.We are good, if honest.
