Imran Wants Two Million People to Gather in Islamabad When He Issues Call
Lahore: PTI Chairman Imran Khan said on Wednesday that he wanted two million people to gather in Islamabad when he gives the call to party supporters on the specified date.
Addressing a crowd chanting slogans in his support at a workers’ convention, the PTI chairman said: "I want two million people to come to Islamabad when I give the call. I want all of you to go to the people and tell them about our movement for true freedom."
He told party workers to go to their neighborhoods and inform the people of the "conspiracy" that had been hatched to topple the PTI government in the form of a no-trust motion in the National Assembly.
"When you go to the people, you have to tell them that an imported government has been brought through a conspiracy [...] this means that the United States will control us through these stooges and boot polishers," he said, referring to the former opposition that has since formed the new government.
Imran claimed that the leaders of the incumbent government will be easily controllable since their assets and wealth were stashed abroad. "They will enslave the whole country to save their looted wealth. They will sacrifice the country for the interests of another."
"The conspiracy was carried out because your prime minister said he wanted a foreign policy that would only look at the interests of his people. That is why a conspiracy was carried out," Imran thundered as party workers roared with chants of "imported government, namanzoor".
"Campaigns were run on media calling us the most incompetent government." He urged party workers to inform the people of the PTI government's performance and the way it had effectively handled the economy while successfully battling the Covid-19 pandemic.
He also repeated his criticism of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikandar Sultan Raja, calling him a "PML-N agent". He accused Raja of targeting the PTI and asked him to resign.
"CEC, the biggest political party has no faith in you. Therefore, you have no right to remain at your post and you should resign."
Imran also lambasted the media blackout of the PTI on mainstream TV channels and questioned why the defenders of press freedom were not standing up against it.
"During our stint in power, 80 per cent of the programs were against our government. So why is there a media blackout now?" he asked. - Dawn
