PTI leader Maleeka Bukhari siad that events of May 9 are painful for every Pakistani; there’s no pressure on her to leave party.
She announced her decision while addressing a press conference at National Press Club (NPC).
Maleeka Bokhari, a former parliamentarian, Thursday announced quitting the Imran Khan-led Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), joining a long list of leaders to desert the party following the May 9 riots.
After announcing her resignation from the PTI, Maleeka Bokhari says she now wants to give time to her profession and family.
Addressing a press conference, she said, “As a lawyer, I want to play an important role in Pakistan. And as a mother and daughter — because my mother is a cancer survivor — I now want to give time to my profession and family.”
“May 9 was a very difficult day for every Pakistani,” she said at a press conference.
