Following Baykal, deputy and former minister Fikri Saglar also criticized Kilicdaroglu, vowing to stand as a candidate for the party leadership if an extraordinary congress is held.

"Kilicdaroglu campaigned against the 'one man' in the referendum, but he himself became the only man in the campaign," Saglar said.

However, Kilicdaroglu, who has led the CHP since 2010, blasted dissident voices in the party.

"We will never allow an inner-party fight ... We will get rid of those who cause such fights. I will show the door to whoever harms this party," he said after which the CHP's central board launched initial disciplinary proceedings against Saglar.

Bingol also stated that the CHP will continue to reject the referendum results in the coming period, as legal works to complete the appeal to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) continue.

Prominent CHP deputy Muharrem Ince, who had in the last years challenged party leader Kilicdaroglu, has once again called for an extraordinary general assembly to hold a leadership election one of the many of the latest years.

"This general assembly should be consecrated to elect a new president," he said to journalists. He was in fact referring to the presidential election scheduled for 2019, when Turkey's first executive presidential election will be held, in line with the constitutional revision adopted by Turks.

Ince said that the CHP must fight against "internalizing the spirit of defeat," calling the party who lost each and every election against the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) since the later came to power in November 2002.
