Our sit-in is continuing, it will continue till the call of Khan: Ali Amin Gandapur
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur said on Wednesday that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) sit-in is a movement that is ongoing and will continue until the call of the founder [to call it off].
Gandapur was addressing a news conference here along with Opposition Leader in the National Assembly Omar Ayub.
He said that the PTI is a peaceful party. “We talk about the rule of law, protection of the constitution, true freedom and democracy in the country. Unfortunately, for the last two and a half years, our party has been subjected to oppression.”
Gandapur said cases were fabricated against [the PTI leadership]. “Our mandate was stolen. Our leader is in jail in concocted case. Our voters were tortured. We demand our rights but we are not allowed to protest peacefully.”
The chief minister said a cruel tradition has been set which is unprecedented in history. “We do not get justice from courts. We have only one choice, to protest without permission.
“I want to make it clear, the sit-in is ongoing. It will continue as it is launched on the call of [Imran] Khan. He had said that the sit-in will continue until he say so. I want to tell the whole of Pakistan that our sit-in is continuing.”
