LAHORE: The Punjab chapter of the Pakistan People’s Party has planned an anti-government rally in Sialkot on Feb 13.

PPP Punjab president Qamar Zaman Kaira says other constituents of the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) will also join the rally meant to build pressure on the government and support the PML-N candidates contesting the by-polls in Sialkot and Gujranwala.

He says the PPP fully supports the PML-N nominees, reciprocating the party’s backing for the PPP candidates in Sindh by-polls.
