LAHORE, Nov 27: The Tahaffuz Namoos-i-Risalat Mahaz (TNRM) has said all Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) component parties will gather at Data Darbar on Sunday at any cost.

It also said 'Save Pakistan Long March' would continue despite arrests of Sunni workers and leaders.

At a press conference here on Saturday, TNRM President Allama Razaul Mustafa Naqshbandi condemned the arrests and police action against the long march participant. He said the Punjab government's oppressive tactics were reminiscent of the Musharraf regime

He said the participants in the long march coming from Islamabad would be welcomed at Shahdara Chowk on Sunday afternoon while all Sunni parties would gather at Data Darbar at 2pm. He said if the government tried to sabotage its gathering here, it would hold demonstrations in every nook and corner of Lahore.

He said PML-N leader Zulfiqar Khosa's statement was pack of lies as none of the 23 SIC demands were met.
