Pakistan Muslim League-N has instructed its workers to start preparations for participation in Azadi march on October 27 under the aegis of Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam (JUI-Fazl). Addressing a press conference at Peshawar Press Club here on Sunday, the PML-N provincial spokesman Ikhtiar Wali Khan and MPA Sobia Khan said that the party was determined to play its role in the march against the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf government.

The leaders said that former prime minister Nawaz Sharif in his talks with media on the occasion of his appearance in an accountability court had clearly assured Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman of his (PML-N) support and now there was no doubt for the workers to feel any hesitation.

We conveyed the message of our leader (Nawaz Sharif) to the office bearers in different districts so that they could start mobilization of the workers in respective areas to ensure participation of maximum people in the march on Islamabad to start on October 27, Wali maintained.

The PML-N leaders said that the government had badly failed to come up to the expectations of the public, saying that Imran Khan through his repeatedly speeches had claimed to bring change in fate of the poor people but he could not fulfil his commitments. The increasing unemployment, prices of daily use commodities and imposition of new taxes are gift of the PTI government for the poverty-hit people, he said.

The PML-N spokesman said that corruption cases against politicians were meant to victimize the rival parties leaders and nothing else otherwise the corrupt elements in the ruling clique should also be arrested to prove impartiality, fairness in the accountability process.

He claimed that the government was misusing its powers and the recent arrest of Haji Nawab Khan, a former PML-N candidate (NA-26 Nowshera) was ample proof of the victimization of anti-government political activists. He said the PML-N's activist had done nothing wrong but he had hoisted party flag on his residence.
