BAHAWALPUR: Pakistan Tahreek-i-Insaf (PTI) activists staged an ‘Election karao mulk bachao’ rally at Khatm-i-Nabuwat Chowk here on Monday.

Participants in the rally, led by MPA Samiullah Chaudhury and other party office-bearers, raised slogans for early elections in the country.

Speakers condemned the Pakistan Democratic Alliance (PDM) for a U-turn on elections after the dissolution of provincial assemblies of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. They also condemned the government, which they said, had failed to check price hike.

After hours-long protest, the PTI activists dispersed peacefully with a pledge that whenever the party chairman would give them a call, they would stand by him to take the country out of the current economic and political crisis.
