Imran barely gathered 10,000 people for long march: Fazl

PDM chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman has said that former prime minister Imran Khan barely gathered 10,000 people for his long march.

Addressing a rally in KP’s Kohistan district, Fazlur Rehman lambasted the PTI chairman for claiming that a million people will attend the march.

Taking a jibe at Imran, the JUI-F head recalled how three assassination attempts have been made on his life too but he is still standing in front of the people.

“Imran was shot once; he was so afraid that he installed bulletproof glass at home as well,” he said.

PML-N leader Hina Parvez Butt has said that everyone was now waiting for when former prime minister Imran Khan would take a “U-turn on the resignations from assemblies”.

Taking to Twitter on Sunday afternoon, she termed the PTI chairman’s announcement at the long march merely a “failed attempt to save face”.

Sharjeel Memon claims Imran to be behind bars soon

Sindh minister Sharjeel Memon claimed that the “day when Imran Khan is behind bars isn’t far” and that there is “cleaning going on in Adiala jail” to prepare a room for the former premier.

Speaking to the media in Karachi, the PPP leader alleged that Imran had gotten numerous members of the PPP and PML-N arrested right after coming into power and created enemies in the name of accountability.

He added that Imran had used the National Accountability Bureau for his “political victimisation”.

Memon further said that if Imran had any shame, he would ask President Arif Alvi to resign and would tell his workers to turn themselves in.

Business as usual in most parts of Rawalpindi as PTI holds rally

Life remained normal in the garrison city of Rawalpindi except on the portion of Murree Road from Chandni Chowk to 6th Road where the PTI held its public gathering on Saturday.

The usual hustle and bustle in Saddar and other commercial areas in the cantonment continued as well. Traders opened their shops as per routine while cart pushers were seen selling fruits, sunglasses, baseball caps and second-hand garments on roads in the bazaars.

However, the garrison city’s main artery, Murree Road from Chandni Chowk to 6th Road presented a different look.

Situationer: Political ‘bombshell’ or bid to engage with new brass?

PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s ‘ambiguous threat’ to quit the assemblies is actually an attempt to “stay politically relevant” and “an invitation for renewed engagement” to the new military leadership, which is all set to take over from next week.

This was the crux of the analysis put forward by a number of legal and political experts who spoke to Dawn following Mr Khan’s ‘surprise’ announcement during the public meeting in Rawalpindi on Saturday night.

Nearly all those Dawn spoke to were unanimous in their view, saying that Mr Khan may not actually follow through on the threat. They speculated that the PTI leader made this announcement because he had no other option left, after telling his followers that he would spring a surprise at the gathering in Rawalpindi — the headquarters of the powerful military that is also known as the garrison city.
