Earlier on May 29, the PDM head Maulana Fazlur Rehman had said in a press conference following the huddle amongst the opposition alliance a new strategy of protests and marches starting July was hammered out.

He noted Pakistan Peoples Party and Awami National Party are not parts of PDM and thus these parties were not discussed in the least today.

Falzur Rehman had reiterated that the government is an elected one and thus it can never address the issues faced by the masses. The government which does not have the confidence of the people cannot deal with the challenges posed to the people, he said.

He announced that PDM will hold a massive protest in Swat on July 4 which will follow another grand protest march in Karachi on July 29. He added that PDM shall observe the independence day holding a demonstration in the federal capital on August 14.
