Imran Khan announces march towards Islamabad in last week of May

ISLAMABAD, April 30 (SABAH): Former prime minister Imran Khan on Saturday has announced that the PTI would begin the anti-government long march towards Islamabad in the last week of May.

Imran Khan in its video message said that we will be giving this call to all Pakistanis, not just PTI supporters, as Pakistan has been insulted after the country’s most corrupt people were imposed on us by a foreign power.

In his message released, the ex-prime minister said the PTI’s Core Committee has decided to give the call as “60% of the people in the federal cabinet are on bail”.

“The person who has become the prime minister is dubbed as the crime minister. His [family] has cases worth Rs40 billion pending in the FIA and NAB,” Khan said.The PTI chairman reiterated that such people being in power was an “insult” to Pakistan.

Former prime minister Khan was ousted from power on April 10 after the National Assembly voted against him on the no-confidence motion — making him the first premier to be voted out through the move.

Khan had repeatedly blamed the US for backing the no-confidence motion and has refused to accept newly elected PM Shehbaz Sharif, saying “there can’t be any bigger insult to this country.” The Joe Biden-led administration in the US, however, has denied the allegations.
