PTI leader Ali Muhammad Khan has said that the party’s nomination of Mahmood Khan Achakzai for the role of president was a “message” to Balochistan of unity.

Speaking to the media, Khan recalled that in the past, the PTI had given the role of the National Assembly speaker to its leader Asad Qaiser.

He added that through Achakzai’s nomination, the “message sent is that Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is with Balochistan and Sindh”.

“A message will go to the Baloch people that the PTI is each and every Pakistani child’s voice,” he added. Khan said today was the scrutiny of Achakzai’s nomination papers, which was now complete.
