"First our traditions don’t allow the election nomination of women and second the two candidates are not electable and therefore, their tickets should be withdrawn.

The meeting was called to discuss the future line of action over the election nominations by the party in Mansehra district’s PK-30 and PK-34 constituencies.
PTI has fielded Maria Fatima in PK-30 and Zahida Sabeel in PK-34.
"Women candidates are unacceptable to workers and if their tickets aren’t withdrawn and aren’t given to winning aspirants, then the party will certainly lose those seats," he said.
