GHOTKI: The ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Saturday began its “Haqooq-i-Sindh March” from Ghotki to Karachi against the alleged bad governance of Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) government in the province.
Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi reached Ghotki today to commence the march, which would culminate in Karachi on March 6, according to the schedule shared by the PTI.
A convoy of workers left Insaf House Sukkur to Ghotki which was led by PTI Sindh President Ali Zaidi and General Secretary Mobin Jatoi after addressing a large gathering of workers in Sukkur.
Addressing PTI supporters in the Kamoon Shaheed area of Ghotki, the foreign minister expressed the resolve to take Prime Minister Imran Khan’s message to all parts of Sindh.
“I am starting this journey today to introduce Imran Khan’s message, Imran Khan’s manifesto and Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf’s manifesto in every district, every taluka and in every goth of Sindh,” he said.
Qureshi further said the time had arrived for the people of Sindh to free themselves from the shackles of slavery with which they had been bound for the past 15 years. “It is now time for you to set a new destination for yourself,” he added.
The foreign minister said that people who previously saw no political future of Imran Khan were now witnessing him serving as the elected premier.
“They are seeing today that Punjab has adopted Imran Khan’s ideology, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has adopted Imran Khan’s ideology, Imran Khan’s manifesto has been introduced in Azad Kashmir and Imran Khan’s philosophy has reached the mountains of Gilgit-Baltistan,” he added.
He said the people of Sindh were tired of the PPP government in the province that had deprived them of their rights. Qureshi added that the people were now questioning PPP Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto and holding him accountable for depriving them of their rights.
“Come, let’s move towards a new destination from Kamoon Shaheed,” he said, adding that the caravan would Karachi on March 6. “It will reach Karachi with Imran Khan’s message and then I will invite him, will convey to him that Sindh is prepared to welcome him,” he concluded.
Sharing the video of his welcome, the minister wrote: “The historic reception of the PTI convoy and the grand start of the Sindh Huqooq March is a clear message of the support from the people of Sindh for the movement to get rid of the corrupt rulers.”
