The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has hinted at the possibility of organizing a long march in response to the alleged electoral rigging and the continued detention of party Founder Imran Khan.
Islamabad: PTI hints at ‘long march’ against electoral rigging on Sunday. PTI leader Hamad Azhar took to social media platform X to convey the party’s stance on the matter. He emphasized that there was no chance of ‘moving on’ until the release of former prime minister Imran Khan. Azhar also underscored the importance of releasing all political leaders and workers and returning the nation’s mandate to its rightful place.
In a series of tweets, Azhar warned those in the corridors of power against underestimating the resolve of the people, who could easily digest the ‘injustice and daylight robbery’ of their mandate, and hinted at the rapid progression towards a decisive long march. He asserted that the entire nation would take to the streets in solidarity with the PTI’s cause.
The indication of a potential long march comes amidst growing tensions over alleged electoral irregularities and the detention of political leaders. PTI’s stance signals a firm determination to pursue justice and uphold democratic principles, setting the stage for potential mass mobilization in the days to come.
On the other hand, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur also announced protests in Peshawar against the alleged electoral rigging.
