I want friendship with US but not slavery, Imran tells rally in Lahore
Former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan has once again said that he was not anti-American and want friendship with Washington but doesn’t want its slavery.
Addressing a rally in Lahore on Saturday, he said that he was not against any country and Pakistani community is the most powerful in America. Revealing his strategy to achieve “Haqeeqi Azadi”, Imran Khan said fear was the most dangerous idol which enslaved human beings and a slave nation can never prosper.”
Addressing the charged crowd at National Hockey Stadium, Punjab Chief Minister Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi warned Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah of landing behind the bars and will be hanged.
The chief minister said that the provincial government will act within the law. Pervaiz Elahi while giving another bad news to the Sharifs said that former prime minster and PTI chaimran Imran Khan has strong relation with the army.
He said that he is bringing a law to end the scourge of usury which will punish the usurer with five years imprisonment, adding that PTI Chairman Imran Khan is his leader.
Appreciating his efforts, the Punjab Chief Minister claimed that he (Imran) has now become the leader not only of Pakistan but also of the Islamic world.
Crediting the nation, Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi said that he will carry forward the vision of the former prime minister. He further said that his focus was to provide free education to common people and to bring peace where people are suffering. CM Elahi said that Rescue 1122 during his previous tenure as Chief Minister of Punjab is the best example.
Pervaiz Elahi also said he was praised at the World Bank meeting, where the small provinces of China and India were asked to follow Pakistan s Punjab.
The PTI is staging a massive show to celebrate Pakistan s “haqeeqi (real) freedom”, while screens have also been installed in many cities across the country to live telecast the speech of Imran Khan.
Last week, the PTI had shifted the venue of its scheduled public meeting on August 13 from Islamabad to Lahore. The decision was taken in the meeting of PTI’s political committee chaired by chairman Imran Khan. The political party will hold its power show in Lahore instead of Islamabad.
In the meeting, the party decided to change the venue and now the PTI’s public meeting will be held at Hockey Stadium Lahore on the same day.
Khan directed the PTI leaders to make maximum steps to make the upcoming rally successful. The PTI chairman also gave the tasks to the Lahore organizations and asked them to start preparations for the Independence Day celebrations. Khan asked the Lahore leadership to run a door-to-door mass contact campaign ahead of the public gathering.
PTI leaders Omar Ayub Khan and Ali Nawaz Awan told the media that Imran Khan decided to hold a public gathering in Lahore on August 13. A PTI delegation visited the Rawalpindi cricket stadium and Liaquat Bagh.
Earlier, it was decided to organise the rally in Rawalpindi cricket stadium but the making of new pitches by the cricket board would affect the rally, said Omar Ayub Khan. He said that the officials of the English Cricket Board are also expected to visit the stadium.
“Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan is also holding a public meeting on August 13. PTI will hold public gathering like a festival,” said Ali Nawaz Awan.
