The fact that PTM was unable to create storm and waves over death of Tahir Dawar, speaks volumes about its impotence and failure. The murder of Tahir Dawar (by ISI) was more heinous and troubling than Naqibullah. He was your typical "Gul Khan" of Afghanistanis and Pashtun-nationalists, a man loyally doing his duty and serving his state. Yet he was discarded like a tissue paper. This was a golden opportunity for PTM to shine by making noises that 'look even Gul Khan is not safe in Pakistan' but they could not bring out men in their "country wide protest" over murder of Tahir Dawar as announced by Manzoor Pashteen on facebook. They are done for, Manzoor Pashteen has no street power. The protests were Naqibullah were quite successful because they had also support from non-Pashtun Pakistanis. These days they are shrunk and measly like any other narrow-minded Pashtun nationalists.
The young Manzoor Pashteen was a poster boy all along or reduced to such status by much shrewd older men belonging to Pashtun nationalist parties. The movement was hijacked by ANP-walas from the get go and they used him and his "Mahsud Tahafuz movement". Mohsin Dawar of ANP and Ali Wazir used his movement as a ladder and emerged as leaders. Manzoor Pashteen promised that his men will not participate in elections but Mohsin Dawar and Ali Wazir disobeyed the poster boy and won seats in national assembly. Manzoor Pashteen expressed his anger and disappointment over it on facebook but was silenced. The activity, reach and say of both Mohsin Dawar and Ali Dawar has increased tremendously , and now even on social media both have more followers on twitter than Manzoor Pashteen and latter is pushed to background, reduced to largely Facebook activity. Much efficient Mohsin Dawar has taken over as representative face of PTM. No one listens to Manzoor Pashteen. He requests his followers to refrain from targeting political parties (PTI and others), welcoming people from all political background yet all of his followers are involved in ANP-ish activity.
