LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Quid (PML-Q) chief Chaudhry Shujaat has urged both government and opposition to cancel their planned public rallies, in Islamabad, in the national interest of the country.
In a statement, issued on Tuesday, Chaudhry Shujaat said that Pakistan cannot afford such a tense political situation in current national and international circumstances. “Inflation-hit poor masses of the country are worried over public rallies and politics of numbers,” he added.
It is pertinent to mention here that Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief and Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) chairman Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Monday called on the entire nation to march towards the federal capital on March 23 for an anti-government long march.
The PDM chief said that we will hold a historic rally from the doors of Parliament House to Shahra-e-Dastoor through which the members of the parliament would be provided a safe passage to reach the House to attend the parliament session.
On the other hand, Federal Minister for Planning and Development Asad Umar on Monday announced that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) will hold a historic rally at the federal capital’s D-Chowk on March 27.
Asad Umar, in a tweet, said that Prime Minister Imran Khan has decided to hold a historic public gathering.
The minister said that the world will witness how the Pakistani nation stands with its captain for its freedom and sovereignty.
