PTI’s Salman Akram Raja Rebukes Aliya Hamza Over Controversial Tweet, Warns of Disciplinary Action

Rawalpindi: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Salman Akram Raja expressed his anger over a tweet by PTI Punjab Chief Organizer Aliya Hamza regarding a Lahore event and warned that disciplinary action will be taken if such incidents recur.

Speaking to the media outside Adiala Jail, Salman Akram Raja said Aliya Hamza should not have tweeted about the Lahore event. He described the situation as “foolish” and based on a conspiracy, emphasizing that those who did not attend the event did so by their own choice and that there was no issue of invitation.

He added that there was no need for anyone to come to the press conference, explaining that he attended only because the Chief Minister was present and it would not look good for him to hold the conference alone. “If anyone wanted to come, they could have; no invitation was necessary, nor did we prevent anyone,” he stated.

Salman Akram Raja further asserted that the directives given by the party founder would remain unchanged and dismissed any talk about a 90-day deadline. He challenged anyone opposing his statements to confront him directly.

He labeled the entire controversy as foolish and reiterated that any further incidents would result in disciplinary measures.

Raja accused that the Lahore event had been deliberately made controversial and condemned the timing of the tweet following the press conference. “I reject that tweet and warn against posting such messages again,” he said.
