LAHORE: After a successful power show at Minare-Pakistan in Lahore, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has decided to speed up its election campaign and announced to hold rallies in South Punjab, ARY News reported on Tuesday citing sources.
Sources privy to the development told ARY News that PTI has decided to move its election campaign to South Punjab despite an ongoing case in the apex court regarding delay in Punjab, KP elections.
After Lahore, PTI chairman Imran Khan would address party’s second rally in Lodhran, they say, adding that the date for Lodhran public gathering would be announced soon.
PTI leader Mussarat Jamsheed Cheema said that schedule for upcoming PTI rallies in South Punjab will be unveiled soon.
Former prime minister Imran Khan gave an ‘economic roadmap’ for the country’s prosperity during a ‘historic’ jalsa at Lahore’s Minar-e-Pakistan on Saturday night.
Addressing the power show, Imran Khan praised party workers and supporters for reaching the venue despite ‘the hurdles created by the Punjab government’.
The PTI chief alleged that his government was overthrown under a ‘conspiracy’ and ‘gang of criminals’ imposed on the country. “A message should be sent today that no one cannot curb the people’s passion by force,” he added.
Lambasting the Punjab government for ‘creating hurdles’, Imran Khan claimed they over 2,000 PTI workers have been taken and containers were placed to prevent party supporters from reaching the venue.
