"Situation may go out of control if the government tried to create hurdles for the long march ", warned Tahirul Qadri while addressing a press conference here Sunday.

He also warned Punjab government against harassing his party workers and threatened that half of the participants would march on Lahore while rest on Islamabad if any effort to halt the march was put up.

"It would be decided on Jan 14 in Islamabad whether the looters would rule the country or those who were being looted Said Qadiri.

"I want to remind the PPP workers of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto's famous slogan of Roti, Kapra, and Makaan, nobody has got these things till date," he added.

Qadri said that his door was open to dialogue and he would talk to Interior Minister Rehman Malik if he visited him.
