ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan said that President Asif Ali Zardari is responsible for the drone attacks being conducted in Pakistan. He further said that Nawaz Sharif should resign first from the assemblies if he is serious about launching a anti-government march.

Imran Khan said that the corrupt ruling mafia will never accept an independent Chief Justice.

He said that Nawaz Sharif should act like a real lion rather than a fake one and ask his party to resign from the national and provincial assemblies.

Criticising the prime minister, Imran Khan said that a layman cannot eat one meal in a day, while Prime Minister Gilani is working to protect the money of a robber rather than saving the assets of the people.

Imran Khan also warned that democracy will be greatly damaged if an independent judiciary was destroyed. The PTI chief further said that today’s gathering is preparation for a tsunami march.

"If Asif Zardari does not hold illegal money why doesn't he write a letter to the Swiss authorities," said Imran Khan.
