ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister for States and Frontier Regions (Safron) Lt Gen Retd Abdul Qadir Baloch said on Tuesday that Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) chief Dr Tahirul Qadri was using Minhajul Quran students to shield himself from the law, DawnNews reported.
The Safron minister said that Dr Qadri speaks about revolution while rejecting the constitution.
He further said that the aims of those holding 'Long marches' are unclear and Dr Qadri does consider Pakistani citizens as able enough to be told about his agenda.
The statements comes as Islamabad braces for protest marches led by Imran Khan and Tahirul Qadri who have vowed to topple the government of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.
The two plan to march on August 14 when Pakistan celebrates its independence day accompanied by thousands of supporters as they claim that last year's general election was rigged.
