PM advisor Shabizada Jahangir

Shabizada Jahangir, Prime Minister Imran Khan’s spokesperson on Trade and Investment in UK & Europe, has announced to hold a protest outside the Avenfield House on Friday to interrupt Nawaz Sharif’s speech to the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) rally in Gujranwala.

Earlier, a message circulated in a WhatsApp group in which a claim was attributed to Sahibzada Jahangir, highlighting that Imran Khan had ordered him to hold the protest.

The message read,

“PM has directed me to organize a demonstration outside Nawaz Sharif’s house in London on Friday 16th Oct between 3 pm – 6 pm. This is the time NS will be addressing a Jalsa in Gujranwala. Our protest will be shown live in Pakistan on television. We will be standing in groups of 6 persons. Police have given us permission to stand at [a] distance in groups of 6.”

However, Jahangir had clarified the situation and said he was personally organizing the protest and Imran Khan had nothing to do with it. He further said to a reporter that except Imran Khan’s involvement part was false, however, the rest of the message was correct.

On the other hand, PTI UK’s elected body said it had no involvement in the protest and no official directions had been communicated for it.

Taqveem Ahsan Siddiqi, PTI’s elected Information Secretary said that PTI’s elected bodies know nothing about the protest and Jahangir must be “doing on his own”.

”PTI UK tanzeem is not into internal elections till the first week of November,” he added.

Meanwhile, Tariq Chaudhary also announced to protest on Friday outside Hasan Nawaz Sharif’s office. He said,

“My protest is outside an office”.

Khaqan Abbasi PDM meeting

The Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) has decided to hold a public rally on October 16 on GT Road in Gujranwala at all costs.

Former premier Shahid Khaqan Abbasi said while addressing a press conference in Gujranwala on Wednesday that the government did not give permission to PDM to hold a rally in Jinnah Stadium, thus PDM will hold a rally on GT Road.

“Neither the police nor the containers could stop them from holding rallies,” said Khaqan Abbasi.

He went on to say that the PTI government failed miserably to provide relief to the people. He highlighted that increasing inflation and unemployment in the country has made lives difficult. On the other hand, the poverty rate in the country has increased drastically.

PML-N leader Ahsan Iqbal, while speaking on the occasion accused the government of arresting their leaders. He maintained that PDM leaders’ houses are being raided by police officials to pressurize them from holding rallies against the government.

He added that people around the country will participate in the rally in large numbers despite all odds.
