PTI to March Toward Islamabad with Full Preparedness, Says Junaid Akbar

PESHAWAR – Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) President Junaid Akbar Khan announced that the party is gearing up for a march towards Islamabad with full preparation this time. Speaking to the media on Sunday, Akbar emphasized that PTI would be better prepared compared to their previous attempt, which saw unexpected violence, including live bullets.

“We were not expecting live bullets on us last time. This time, we’ll come with complete preparation,” said Akbar, who also stated that while PTI aims for a peaceful demonstration, they will be well-equipped to handle any situation that may arise.

Akbar, who was appointed as the new provincial president of PTI KP, also clarified that his primary focus would be on fulfilling the responsibilities entrusted to him by PTI founder Imran Khan. He reaffirmed that his intention was not to engage in confrontations with the government or institutions.

Looking ahead to PTI’s rally in Swabi on February 8, Akbar said the event would be a “historical power show” and a key moment for the party’s supporters.

Regarding party governance, Akbar revealed that while KP Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur would concentrate on provincial matters, he would manage the party’s activities in KP. He also emphasized that he was not seeking any ministerial position and that changes in government leadership were the prerogative of the chief minister.
