• Decision taken in accordance with Imran Khan’s directives: Gohar
• He says party will hold peaceful protest outside Parliament House.
• Waqas Akram says MNAs will briefly attend, then boycott sessions.

ISLAMABAD: After submitting resignations from multiple parliamentary panels, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has now decided to boycott National Assembly (NA) sessions, The News reported on Tuesday.

The move, in line with the PTI founder Imran Khan’s directives, will see the party converge outside the Parliament House for informal proceedings.

The development comes against the backdrop of multiple disqualifications of PTI lawmakers, including former leader of the opposition in the NA and Senate Omar Ayub and Shibli Faraz, after the courts sentenced them in cases related to the May 9 riots — further exacerbating the former ruling party’s existing legal woes.

Announcing the decision, PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan said that the parliamentary party’s members fully support the decision and they would now be staging peaceful protest gatherings outside the Parliament House.

“Our members were disqualified, and we were not even allowed to speak. If we wanted to celebrate Independence Day, they did not allow us to do so either,” Gohar lamented while reflecting on PTI lawmakers’ disqualifications.

“We tried to present our demands in the assembly session in a democratic manner, but we were not allowed to speak,” the PTI chairman added.

When contacted, PTI Information Secretary Waqas Akram confirmed the development. But when asked, would the party lawmakers totally stay away from the session, he explained that the members would briefly attend each sitting and then come out in protest.

“Our members will hold assembly outside the Parliament,” he explained.

Meanwhile, NA Speaker Ayaz Sadiq has urged PTI-backed Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) members to reconsider their decision to resign from the standing committees of the Lower House.

“I wish that they should remain part of the standing committees of the House,” Sadiq said while while chairing a meeting of the House Business Advisory Committee a day earlier.

Kevin Coastner appeared to have found the love of his life he had been searching for so long.

As per a recent report by Daily Mail, the Yellowstone star is quietly dating Noonan Gores, the 46-year-old filmmaker and ex-wife of billionaire Alec Gores.

The reports of Kevin’s new fling broke last week and now the pair attended the JAS Labor Day Experience Festival in Snowmass Village over the weekend.

Kevin is reportedly over the moon after his budding romance following his messy divorce from ex wife Christine Baumgartner last year.

“Kevin is dating and happy again after a very dark time in his life,” a source told the outlet.

The pair has been together for couple of months and Kevin wants to keep it low key as he doesn’t want it to go astray.

“He has been seeing Kelly. They were together in Aspen in late July. He has tried to keep it very hush hush because he doesn’t want this to go off the rails,” the insider noted.

The new woman provides him with exactly those things that Kevin has been searching for in a partner for a very long time.

“She is exactly his type and they have a lot in common: the outdoors, sports — she likes to surf — long walks with dogs,” the tipster mentioned. “Also she has young kids and he loves kids, so he thinks that’s cute. He says she is just “chill,” which is what he needs right now.”

Another source noted that Noonan “has fallen into his charm 110%.”

While Kevin “thinks she is very nice, super sexy and likes hanging out with her.”

The tattler went on to say, “Kevin can get almost any woman he wants, and Kelly is his target right now and they both are enjoying each other’s company.”

The spark between the pair is currently at the initial stages, “He’s looking to hang out with her as much as possible and she is all for it as well.”

“It is hot and heavy right now, and the sky is the limit,” the bird chirped
