PPP rally on Jan 14
ISLAMABAD, Dec 23: The People’s Party Parliamentarians has decided to hold a public meeting at the historical Liaquat Bagh in Rawalpindi on Jan 14 as part of its mass mobilisation campaign against the government.
The decision was made at a meeting of the party office-bearers and parliamentarians belonging to the Rawalpindi division and Islamabad here on Saturday.
Talking to Dawn, PPP secretary-general Raja Pervez Ashraf said the public meeting had been called to condemn the present “dictatorial rule” in the country.
He hoped that a large number of people would participate in the public meeting to express their anger over the government’s policies.
Mr Ashraf said all the top party leaders would be present on the occasion in which party chairperson Benazir Bhutto would be requested to disembark at Islamabad Airport whenever she returned to the country.
The PPP meeting was also attended by MNAs Naheed Khan, Zamarrud Khan, Nayyar Bokhari and Rukhsana Bangash, MPAs Sabiha Syed and Amir Fida Piracha, and other office-bearers.
