Imran to announce future line of action in tomorrow's protest against rising inflation
Islamabad: PTI Chairman and former prime minister Imran Khan announced on Saturday he would share his future course of action in his party's nationwide protest planned for tomorrow (Sunday) against rising inflation.
He was presiding over a meeting of his party spokespersons.
Khan said the future course of action would be decided along with the nation in tomorrow's (June 19) protest.
"Oppression and force cannot stop the people from raising their voices," he added.
During the meeting, the PTI chairman congratulated the members, especially ex-energy minister Hammad Azhar, on Pakistan's removal from the Financial Action Task Force's (FATF) grey list.
Talking about the rising prices in the country, Khan said that the PTI shielded the nation from global inflation.
"The current government does not care about the people or the future of the country," he said, adding that the "situation will be out of control if the economy was destabilised."
Khan further claimed that the "coalition government is putting the future of the nation at stake just to save themselves" and alleged that the government is destroying the institutions to keep itself in power.

Former information minister Fawad Chaudhry called the people belonging to the big cities including Multan, Faisalabad, Rawalpindi, Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi and Peshawar to protest against the "high inflation and lawlessness".
