ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan on Thursday said that he would announce his plan for real independence in PTI’s August 13 gathering in Lahore.
Addressing the participants of a convention organized on the occasion of world minorities day PTI Chief Imran Khan said that a small elite has taken over the country. Their fight is against this elite, which thinks it is above the law, he added.
The former Premier said that real justice means that the poor and the rich should be treated equally by the law. No country can progress without justice, it is what separates humans from other animals, he added.
The PTI Cheif said that Islam believes in equality for all humans, Prophet Muhammad created the state of Madina and made all humans equal citizens of the region, he added. The Caliphs appeared in courts on minorities’ allegations and defended themselves, he added.
He added that Muhammad Ali Jinnah wanted the Hindus and Muslims to fight the British together but he parted ways after he got to know the congress party’s intentions. He was an advocate of Muslim and Hindu rights, he added.
“The country cannot move forward until justice prevails,” he said, asking the people present at the convention to highlight those countries where the decision is taken against the head of the government.
The former premier said: “A society can never prosper without the rule of law…everyone, including the rich and the poor, must have equal human rights.”
He lamented that the absence of rule of law was one of the biggest problems in Pakistan.
Speaking about his upcoming rally in Lahore, the former premier told the gathering that on August 13, his party will celebrate “real freedom” and give a message to minorities that they are equal citizens of Pakistan.
He added that he will also unveil a future course of action on how to achieve “true freedom”.
