'Get ready for my call': Imran Khan tells supporters

HARIPUR: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman and former prime minister Imran Khan on Wednesday urged his supporters and party workers to await his call and reiterated his demand for early elections in the country.

Imran Khan, while addressing a massive public gathering in Haripur today, once again demanded “imported government” to immediately call the general elections in the country and hinted at another protest movement if elections were not called.

“I ask of the entire nation to prepare and wait for my call,” Imran said and warned Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif that his government would not be able to stop the sea of people when they will gather in Islamabad from all four provinces.

The PTI chief maintained that fresh and fair elections are necessary for the political and economic stability in the country. Imran told the participants of the rally that 220 million people were being enslaved through a “regime change conspiracy.”

Imran further said that Pakistan was defamed across the country by lodging a terrorism case against him. “Police came to arrest me in a style as I am a high-profile terrorist. Pakistan was insulted as the entire world highlighted the matter,” he said.

On floods, the former premier said that the people of Balochistan and Sindh are dying of flash floods and our prime minister was making foreign tours with a “bagging bowl.” “Incumbent rulers have left people helpless in these difficult times,” he added.
