ISLAMABAD Barrister Gohar, the chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), declared on Wednesday that the party fully supports Justice Yahya Afridi as the Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP).
Speaking to The News, he stated that the PTI fully embraces the recently appointed CJP but vehemently opposes the 26th Amendment in accordance with party doctrine.
Despite the fact that CJP Afridi was appointed as a result of the 26th Amendment, Barrister Gohar stated that the party still recognizes him as the CJP.
Some members of the party’s political committee believed that PTI ought to demand CJP Afridi’s resignation, according to a PTI source.
Barrister Gohar rejected it when questioned, stating that no such alternative was being considered. He added the PTI’s political committee made the decision to join a few days ago.
