In 2020, Uzma Kardar was expelled from the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party over violating rules.

According to sources, Uzma, in the leaked audio, said,
The establishment, the government and Prime Minister Imran Khan are going hand-in-hand. No government in Pakistan can be run without the support of the military establishment."

My loyalty with my party and Prime Minister Imran Khan is unquestionable. The chief minister is the leader of my team and I hold him in high regard. He has been very appreciative of my work." [2]The News International
