PTI leader Asad Umar has said the party is prepared to set up a “khema basti” (tent city) in Rawapindi.

He said this when asked by a reporter about whether the party planned to stage a protest or sit-in in the garrison city on November 26, when the PTI marchers are scheduled to converge there.

Umar said the next plan of action would be shared by PTI chief Imran Khan on November 26, “and if Khan sahib asks us to make people stay there, there will be arrangements for that as well.”
