In pictures: Azadi Marchers undeterred by containers, tear gas
The obstacles placed by the government in an effort to stop protesters were no match for the participants.
Scores of supporters took to the streets across the country on Wednesday at the call of PTI Chairman Imran Khan. The obstacles placed by the government in an effort to repel marchers converging on Islamabad were no match for the men and women on a mission to oust the "imported government".
Decked out in the party's signature red and green while carrying the national flag, the participants seemed unfazed in the face of tear gas shelling by police officials.

It was not an AZADI march, it was AZADI from containers and tear gas.

The Govt’s brutality is shameful, the situation hopeless and grim, it’s anarchy, it’s vile, it’s vomit inducing. It’s spineless, it’s dignity defying.
It’s an erosion of responsibility, decency, and democracy.
The neutrals lost respect by siding with the criminals.

@TZaman, Why ? It is because 150 seater rime minster was selected and 85 seater prime minister is elected ?

These long marches to nowhere should stop. Every party, IK included, has used this tactic to force a change in government. Blocking roads, creating problems for commuters, disrupting business and economy has become a normal for Pak politics.

@Abdul Jabbar , you do not seem to be a regular reader of Dawn. It is only now that they are covering PTI. Over the past 2 months there has been very little coverage of the enormous jalsas held by PTI across Pakistan. By the way, do you know about them?
