This development comes shortly after Khattak’s resignation as president of the PTI’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chapter. However, he has denied rumors of leaving the PTI, dismissing them as “propaganda.”

Jahangir Khan Tareen’s decision to form the IPP highlights the growing factionalism within the PTI and the discontent among some of its members. The party, under Tareen’s leadership, aims to address the issues of governance, justice, and economic stability in Pakistan.

As the political landscape continues to evolve, it remains to be seen how this new party will impact the country’s political dynamics.
