KARACHI: Calling it the beginning of the end of the Pakistan Peoples Party rule in Sindh, the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf announced on Saturday its detailed plan of launching a mass movement from Feb 26 — a day before the PPP’s planned long march on Islamabad which will start from Karachi — from Ghotki to reach major centres of the province.

Maritime Affairs Minister Ali Zaidi, who is also president of the PTI’s Sindh chapter, told a press conference here that the march would start on Feb 26 and reached Karachi on March 6 after passing through from major cities of the province.

“On March 5 we would be organising a huge rally in Hyderabad and on the ninth day a huge rally will be staged in Karachi,” he said.
