RAWALPINDI: The train march of Jamaat-i-Islami (JI) will conclude on Monday (today) at Rawalpindi Railway Station as the local chapter completed arrangements to welcome the participants.

JI leader Sirajul Haq started the march (from Rahimyar Khan) against inflation, corruption and interest-based economy on Saturday (June 24).

Party spokesman Malik Azam told Dawn that the JI had completed arrangements to welcome participants of the train march, adding that the basic aim of the march was to register protest against inflation as the present regime had increased electricity and petroleum rates.
