Faisal Vawda has been making serious headlines lately. He recently held an explosive press conference that left PTI leaders shocked and bewildered as party leader Faisal Vawda appeared on state-owned broadcaster PTV and placed himself at the forefront and “tried to damage” the party’s upcoming long march to Islamabad.

On PTI’s long march, Faisal Vawda said he sees the march would “witness bloodshed, death, and funerals.” He said that “important and common” people’s deaths will take place in the long march, adding that there were “ulterior motives” behind the march to Islamabad.
Following the press conference, PTI leaders claimed that Faisal Vawda’s statements do not represent party policy and a show cause notice was issued to him.
On the other hand, reacting to the show cause notice, Faisal Vawda said his “opponents” can do whatever they want, he, however, stands by what he said.
“Let my opponents do whatever they want, I stand by what I have said for Arshad Sharif, I have given true advice to my party, I have said before and I am still saying that some conspirators are on our peace march. Innocent people can be made scapegoats, what is against party policy in this?” Faisal Vawda tweeted.
میرے مخالف جو کرنا چاہیں کر لیں میں نے ارشد شریف کیلئے جو کہا ہے اس پر کھڑا ہوں، میں نے اپنی پارٹی کو ایک سچا مشورہ دیا ہے، پہلے بھی کہا چکا ہوں اور آج بھی کہ رہا ہوں کہ کچھ سازشی ہمارے پر امن مارچ میں معصوم لوگوں کو بلی کا بکرا بنا سکتے ہیں،اس میں پارٹی پالیسی کے خلاف کیا ہے؟
