PTI failed to attract large number of people, claimed Azma Bukhari
Provincial Minister says only 1,500 people from Lahore reached the venue
Lahore: Punjab Information Minister Azma Bokhari on Saturday claimed that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has failed to attract larger number of supporters for its Lahore rally as people have rejected the party’s politics of anarchy.
Addressing to a press briefing, she claimed that only 1,500 people from Lahore reached the venue, while giving a breakdown of participants at the venue.
According to Bukhari, “PTI’s Dera Ghazi (DG) Khan leadership arrived with 100 to 150 people, while Sheikh Imtiaz managed to gather only 15 to 20 people. Rai Hassan Nawaz brought only 60 to 70 people.”
She continued claiming that 1,500 to 1600 people from Lahore attended the rally; 65 to 85 people from Gujranwala; 63 to 77 people from Faisalabad; 26 to 32 from Sahiwal; and 117 to 155 from Multan.
