“I cannot allow injuries to my workers,” Imran Khan postpones rally till tomorrow
The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman has said that it seems again Sec 144 has been imposed illegally solely on PTI election campaign as all other public activities are ongoing in Lahore and only Zaman Park has been surrounded by containers & heavy police contingent.


Lahore: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan said he could not allow injuries to his party workers and postponed the rally due today (Sunday) till Monday (tomorrow).
Taking to Twitter, Imran Khan shared the footage of his party workers who reached Zaman Park to take part in the rally he had announced on Saturday evening.
Khan wrote, “ The PTI Chief said that despite Zaman Park being sealed, the people of Lahore are already out in huge numbers . However, I cannot allow any injuries to my workers, the general public or my police just so these fascists can register more FIRs against us and find a pretext to run away from elections,”.

In another Tweet, Khan said, “It seems again Sec 144 has been imposed illegally solely on PTI election campaign as all other public activities are ongoing in Lahore. Only Zaman Park has been surrounded by containers & heavy police contingent. Clearly, like 8 March, Punjab CM & police want to provoke clashes,”.
