OKARA, December 17: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairperson Imran Khan while calling former prime minister Nawaz Sharif a coward, said that the Pakistan Muslim League-N chief is incapable of initiating a movement against the judiciary.
The PTI chief was addressing a large crowd of party workers and supporters at a party rally at Okara’s football ground.
The PTI chairman jibed at Nawaz’s earlier statement about running a campaign protesting the recent judgement in the disqualification reference, which cleared Imran Khan.
Imran said that in the disqualification reference against him, he provided 60 documents in the judicial proceedings, whereas, Nawaz only presented a Qatari letter to justify his wealth.
“Have you ever run a campaign?” said Imran, mocking the former prime minister.
Imran Khan while directing his statements to Nawaz Sharif, said that corruption is carried out while holding power. “I have never been in power,” said Imran.
“Since four years PTI has been in power in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, ask anyone if I ever built any factory, took a loan or did nepotism, and if you can prove even one thing I will leave politics,” said Imran.
The PTI chief asked the participants to guard the rights of minorities, while condemning the terrorist attack on a church in Quetta today.
He said that the nation should give equal rights to minorities so that they can have equal participation in the making of new Pakistan.

Earlier, the party chairman arrived at the venue and was seated alongside other top PTI leaders, including Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Chaudhry Mohammad Sarwar, Aleem Khan, and others on an 80-feet long stage specially set up for the rally.
PML-N leader and federal Minister for Railways Khawaja Saad Rafique had a strong reaction to Imran’s speech, calling him a jackal while likening Nawaz to a lion.
The federal minister sent a series of tweets following Imran’s speech in Okara rally.
“Imran was right, jackals cannot run a campaign, hence Imran is incapable of leading a movement,” said Rafique. – Agencies
