PTI's Asad Umar is addressing long march participants in Chakwal. He began by thanking the people for turning up to the rally.

"Imran Khan is not in attendance but he will be happy when he sees videos showing that the people of Chakwal are standing with him."

He went on to talk about the country's independence and "dangers currently attached to it".

"These dangers are associated with playing into the hands of enemies. What happened with Pakistan during the past few months was nothing but a huge conspiracy," he said.
