The Istihkam-e-Pakistan Party (IPP), newly formed by former Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Jahangir Tareen, was quickly dismissed by PTI.
PTI argues that forming parties with individuals forced to separate from their original affiliations is not an effective solution to Pakistan’s current problems.
PTI articulated its stance in a Twitter post, emphasizing the necessity for uncorrupted elections and the public’s right to elect their representatives.
Tareen, once a close associate of PTI Chairman Imran Khan and a significant contributor to the establishment of the PTI-led government in 2018, officially introduced his political party, IPP. Alongside other ex-PTI leaders, including Aleem Khan and Imran Ismail, Tareen stated, “We are laying a foundation of a new political party — Istihkam-e-Pakistan Party.”
Tareen’s separation from Khan occurred during the PTI-led government following a money laundering accusation against him. Tareen, however, expressed his belief that his new party will help lift Pakistan out of its current predicaments and that fresh leadership is needed to address the nation’s various problems.
The formation of IPP was triggered after more than 80 PTI leaders dissociated themselves from Khan’s leadership in the wake of the May 9 riots, resulting from Khan’s arrest in the Al-Qadir Trust case. This conflict led to loss of lives, injuries, and disruptions to public services, prompting government action to restore order.
After the aggressive assaults on defense and public properties, a crackdown on PTI was initiated to arrest those involved in the destruction. Pakistan’s top civil-military leadership promised to prosecute the rioters under the country’s appropriate laws, including the Army Act.
