ABBOTTABAD, May 8: Former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan has said that he would lead three million people in his march on Islamabad later this month and that the government would not be able to stop him by installing shipping containers on the roads.
Addressing a public meeting of his party at the College Ground in Abbottabad on Sunday afternoon, Imran Khan said that his opponents claim that the summer heat would not allow people to leave their homes to march on Islamabad, but he believes that heat cannot deter brave youth and sisters.
Imran Khan said he has a belief in Pakistanis that they would stand with him against the ‘Imported government’. He said the people of Abbottabad proved that the nation was standing against the “Mir Jaffar” and “Mir Saddiq” of this era.
Imran said he would announce the date for the march after May 20. The former prime minister said that current rulers had taken power after collaborating with the United States but the Pakistani nation would never accept them.
He said he never wanted to join the US war on terror and was holding negotiations with Russia for the import of fuel and wheat at cheaper rates. Imran Khan used derogatory words for JUI-I leader Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
“The Americans did not want a prime minister [in Pakistan]. They wanted a head of the country like Musharaff, who surrender on a single phone call. They wanted a cherry-blossom, who polishes shoes, who says that beggars are not chooser.”
Imran Khan then used strong language against Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. “If you believe that for you we would be enslaved to the United States, don’t be misled,” he said. He said that when he gave call for the march, the entire nation would arrive in Islamabad to give messgat the “imported government not acceptable.”
Imran Khan said that ever since the new government had taken power the prices of food items had gone up and that TV journalists should go out to know what people say. – DNA
