ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) President Makhdoom Javed Hashmi has said that PTI would fully participate in the next general elections.

Addressing a public meeting in Islamabad, PTI President Javed Hashmi said that his party will provide a bright future for the youth of Pakistan.

He said that if PTI is voted to power, it will close all doors of corruption and plundering in the country.

He urged the youth to rise above all differences and reject corrupt rulers to save the country from disaster.

Referring to Dr Tahirul Qadri's long march and sit-in of victims families in Quetta, Hashmi called upon the masses to stand up for a change, as there is no one to listen their hue and cry.

Expressing optimism despite failures of the federal and Punjab governments on all fronts, Hashmi said that the people were tired of the two parties playing a game of musical chairs, ruling the country turn-by-turn for the past three decades and bringing disaster to the nation.

Hashmi made it clear that the people would not let either the PML-N or PPP come to power again as the recent sit-in and long march had shown that the masses would vote for the PTI in the next general elections.
