SAHIWAL: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan visited Pakpattan on the night between Saturday and Sunday.

Party sources did not disclose the details of Imran’s visit. Interestingly, Imran has been regularly visiting Pakpattan in “personal capacity” for the last one year. Nobody in his party knows about the reason for his visits. He spent the night in the city and visited the shrine of Baba Farid in the morning to lay a floral wreath there. He left for Lahore after visiting the shrine.
