The sources said during a recently held meeting, Iftikhar Khan had told Anwar Saifullah Khan that he would decide joining the PPP after meeting the PTI chairman Imran Khan to communicate to him his differences on the party elections.
When contacted, Iftikhar Khan said that he recently had a meeting with Imran Khan to discuss his divergence of opinion on the intra-party elections on the grounds that the PTI would not be able to prepare well for the election as the process would waste a lot of time.
He added that the process of party elections would delay the nomination of PTI candidates for the general elections till March while the other political parties had already started preparation for the polls.
To a query about rejoining the PPP, he said that his talks with Anwar Saifullah had been successful as his colleagues, friends, and workers were advising him to rejoin the PPP.Iftikhar Khan Jhagra contested the 2008 election on a PPP ticket for the provincial assembly, but narrowly lost.
