The list of the Party Assembly presented by CHP Chairman Özgür Özel at the CHP Extraordinary Congress included some surprising names. One of those names was Mahmut Tanal, a CHP Istanbul MP who became popular during the İmamoğlu protests.
Özgür Özel, who was re-elected as the party leader at the extraordinary congress of the CHP, has also revealed the list for the Party Council and the High Disciplinary Board.
SURPRISE ASSIGNMENT FOR MAHMUT TANAL
Notable names were included in Özel's A team. CHP Istanbul Deputy Mahmut Tanal found a place on the list, while Berkay Gezgin, who was arrested during the protests against Ekrem İmamoğlu, was also included in the list.
Additionally, well-known figures in the public eye such as Gamze Taşçıer, Sezgin Tanrıkulu, Burhanettin Bulut, and Gökhan Zeybek also found a place on the list.
ROSE TO PROMINENCE IN PROTESTS
CHP Istanbul Deputy Mahmut Tanal had not been able to enter Özgür Özel's list during the congress where Özel was first elected as the party leader. Tanal's inclusion in the PM list was considered a surprise.
Moreover, during the protests organized in the process of Ekrem İmamoğlu's detention and arrest, Tanal came to the forefront, especially gaining popularity among the youth.
