PTI leader Hammad Azhar has said “there is no question of moving on” on the issue of alleged rigging in the February 8 elections till ex-premier Imran Khan and other party leaders were released and unless their “mandate was returned”.

In a post on X, Azhar said, “Do not take the public sitting in the Houses of power so lightly that it will silently accept their violence, oppression and daylight robbery.

“Matters are rapidly moving towards a decisive long march; the entire nation will be on the streets,” the PTI leader added.
