LAHORE: Former premier and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan has said that his political party will take to the streets with full force if elections are not held in the country, ARY News reported on Sunday.

He made the announcement while meeting PTI ticket holders from Lahore today. Sources told ARY News that Imran Khan expressed satisfaction over the successful rally organised by PTI to express solidarity with the Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) yesterday.

The PTI chief also gave tasks to the ticket holders for expediting the preparations for a massive public movement. Khan said that a large number of participants attended the PTI rally on short notice.

He said that Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) is not serious to implement the Supreme Court’s (SC) orders regarding the elections. “PTI will take to the streets with full force if elections are not held in the country.”

“The nation will not forgive the thieves violating the Constitution and the law. The ticket holders must be activated in their constituencies and prepare the nation.”
