‘Rising political temperature’ Aleem Khan joins the JKT group

What happened: On March 7, the former minister from Punjab and PTI member Abdul Aleem Khan met the ‘estranged’ leader Jahangir Khan Tareen at his residence in Lahore to announce his inclusion in the JKT group. 24 News reported the development as,  “Aleem Khan said that he wanted to unite all the annoyed groups of the PTI who have paid their services and struggled for the slogan of Naya Pakistan in the past but ignored.”  Details: At the same time, Aleem Khan’s inclusion in the JKT group has met with a severe backlash from other PTI members.
