LAHORE: PML-N lea\u00adder Daniyal Aziz, who recently launched a diatribe against senior party leaders, may not continue his journey with the former ruling party, as the ex-lawmaker has yet to apply for a party ticket, even though interviews of potential candidates are underway at Model Town in Lahore.<\/p>\n

Mr Aziz, who hails from Narowal, had recently chi\u00added PML-N Secretary Gen\u00ad\u00aderal Ahsan Iqbal and Information Secretary Mar\u00adriyum Aurangzeb over inflation and poor communication strategy during the 16-month rule of the Pakistan Democratic Movement.<\/p>\n

He had also indirectly criticised the senior PML-N leadership.<\/p>\n

Some observers believe Mr Aziz is not happy with the party leadership for ignoring him over the past five years, whereas some link his unhappiness to the distribution of election tickets for the upcoming polls in 2024.<\/p>\n

PML-N leader has not applied for party ticket, even though interviews are underway<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Dawn<\/em> reached out to Mr Aziz, but he did not resp\u00adond to requests for comment, despite repeated attempts.<\/p>\n

\u201cDaniyal Aziz has not applied for a PML-N tic\u00adket for the MNA seat from his hometown. Besides, he con\u00ad\u00adtinuously is going aga\u00adinst the party line\u2026,\u201d a PML-N leader told Dawn<\/em> on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Despite his reservations, the PML-N has not sent anyone to the former lawmaker to allay his concerns.<\/p>\n

He said Mr Aziz had been annoyed with the party leadership for not giving him importance despite his \u201csacrifice for the elder Sharif\u201d. Despite multiple attempts, the former lawmaker remained unavailable for comments.<\/p>\n

Mr Aziz was convicted and disqualified by the Supreme Court over contempt in 2018. The former minister had been charged with contempt of court for his jibes against the judiciary in 2017.<\/p>\n

In the defence of his le\u00ad\u00adader, Nawaz Sharif, during the Panama Papers case, he had made harsh comments about the judiciary.<\/p>\n

After his disqualification, the party awarded an MNA ticket to his wife in 2018 elections. After that, Mr Aziz hardly appeared in the news, barring his accident in June 2022.<\/p>\n

Last week, however, he launched a scathing attack on Ahsan Iqbal and Marriyum Aurangzeb for contributing to the poor decision-making that led to unprecedented inflation as well as a \u2018pathetic\u2019 communication strategy to counter the PTI narrative, respectively. Mr Iqbal and<\/p>\n

Ms Aurangzeb had development and information portfolios in the Shehbaz\u2019s cabinet, respectively.<\/p>\n

In response to the remarks made by Daniyal Aziz, he was served a show-cause notice for \u201cviolating party rules\u201d.<\/p>\n

The notice said that Mr Aziz\u2019s remarks about the party leaders \u201chave not only breached the party discipline but also dama\u00adged its reputation\u201d.<\/p>\n

He was asked to file a reply within seven days. How\u00adever, Aziz questioned Sanaullah\u2019s power to issue a show-cause notice to him.<\/p>\n

To a question about a clash between Daniyal Aziz and Ahsan Iqbal during a media talk, Rana Sanaullah said both wanted to field their sons in a provincial constituency in Narowal. The party said Mr Aziz was not happy over the distribution of tickets in his area and had been holding a grudge against Mr Iqbal in
\nthis regard.<\/p>\n

Daniyal Aziz\u2019s case comes in sharp contrast with another party leader Main Javed Latif of Sheikhupura, who, despite diatribes against Shehbaz-led government, retained his party position.<\/p>\n

He was issued a show cause notice on Shehbaz\u2019s instructions, but Javed Latif never bothered to respond. The PML-N president could not take any action against him; in fact, he was directed by Nawaz Sharif to induct the PML-N leader into his cabinet in the PDM government.<\/p>\n
