PTI founder conveys stance on 28th Constitutional Amendment to party leadership

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan has conveyed his opinion on the 28th Constitutional Amendment to the party leadership, Salman Akram Raja said.

Speaking to the media, Salman Akram Raja said Imran Khan had shared his views with his lawyer Salman Safdar during their previous meeting.

He said Salman Safdar had conveyed the PTI founder’s clear stance on the 28th Constitutional Amendment to him.

Salman Akram Raja said he would present Imran Khan’s opinion before the party leadership and convene meetings of the parliamentary party, core committee and political committee.

He said the party meetings would be called after Imran Khan’s scheduled meeting today.

Salman Akram Raja reiterated that he would present the PTI founder’s clear position on the 28th Constitutional Amendment before the party.

Earlier, Imran Khan expressed no grief over the loss of his party’s government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP).

A PTI leader stated that the founding chairman viewed the KP government as a burden due to persistent complaints regarding its performance.

“The person who dethroned our government in KP actually did me a favor,” Imran Khan was quoted as saying.

Preliminary discussions regarding the proposed 28th Constitutional Amendment were held with Imran Khan prior to his formal meeting with counsel Salman Safdar.

Sources added that two more meetings with the founding chairman are expected soon, during which the party’s future political strategy will be finalized.

PTI founder Imran Khan’s meeting with Barrister Salman Safdar lasted for about 40 minutes and marked a significant update following a months-long gap in restricted access to the jailed leader.

Imran Khan has been continuously incarcerated since August 5, 2023, following his initial arrest in Lahore after a conviction in the Toshakhana corruption case. As of late 2026, he has spent over three years behind bars across multiple sentences and pending trial proceedings related to several political and state cases.
