Islamabad, May 9 Former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan once again called on people, to get ready for his call to march towards Islamabad, claiming a sea of people would remove all hurdles and barricades that would be set up by the “imported” government, Dawn reported on Monday.
Khan said this while addressing a public gathering at a postgraduate college in Abbottabad in connection with his mass public contact drive to invite PTI loyalists and workers for the ‘Islamabad march’.
He said that he would give the ‘Azadi March’ call any day after May 20, saying he was expecting a huge representation from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and claimed that the march would put the country on the path to real independence and democracy.
Taking on the media which he said was biased against him and his government as it fervently highlighted the issues relating to price hike during his tenure have suddenly gone quiet and are no longer talking about these issues as if they no longer exist. He challenged the media to dare to highlight price hike as it did during his term.
Khan said that it was never his policy to have unfriendly relations with other countries during his term as prime minister and strived for ties based on equality, respect and not slavery.
He again claimed that his government was a victim of a great conspiracy hatched outside the country and executed in connivance with some people within Pakistan because “we had refused to fight wars of others on our soil”, adding that he wanted a respectable foreign policy.
