PML-Q’s fear of public anger

Published February 5, 2008

LAHORE, Feb 4: City District Government officials removed banners, posters and small hoardings of the Pakistan Muslim League-Q candidates from the city roads and crossings during a late night operation on Monday.

Police sources told Dawn that the move was apparently aimed at saving the party’s publicity material from the wrath of participants of Kashmir rallies scheduled for Monday (today).

Different political parties and civil society organisations are set to take out processions.

Three trucks of CDGL participated in the Monday night drive during which the PML-Q publicity material was removed from The Mall and other roads. — Staff Reporter
