According to details, the PTI chief Imran Khan said it is better to start the ‘Jail Bharo’ movement than protest on road. They are fond of getting us jails, we will let them get their wish, he added.
While holding a television address, the former prime minister said his party could have opted for a nationwide strike but will choose to fill the prisons instead in light of the fears that the country’s economy might deteriorate further.
“But since the state of the economy is so bad, it’ll worsen. Therefore, I ask all my workers, the Pakistani nation, and everyone to prepare for the “Jail Bharo movement,” Khan said.
Imran Khan said after the coming 90 days whoever stays in the government, article 6 will apply to them. The nation is expecting that the judiciary will stand by the constitution.
The former prime minister Imran Khan claimed that nothing is in control of the current government. People should think about where is this country heading.
PTI Chief further said that “It was their plan to weaken Tehreek-e-Insaf by frightening and threatening”.
While Speaking to overseas Pakistanis, the PTI chairman claimed that the 10 million Pakistanis who are living abroad are the country’s strength. He said even if two million of them invest in Pakistan they would need to ask other countries for help.
The overseas Pakistanis who came to Pakistan during PTI tenure, have been going back now due to the worst economic conditions and unemployment.
The PTI chairman takes jibe at the PDM-led government, he said that the prices of petrol, electricity, and gas have hiked up and it will increase more in near future.
He predicted that the PDM government is now looking for escape amid the increasing inflation.
