LAHORE: PAT chief Dr Tahirul Qadri gave a deadline of December 31 to Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif and Law Minister Rana Sanaullah for resigning and surrendering before the law, failing which he threatened to announce future line of action against the government.
“This time my strike against the ‘killer government’ will not go fruitless. I am now fully prepared to win the battle against them, and I will not tolerate any more delay in justice,” he said Tuesday while talking to media and addressing a meeting of civil society and traders representatives in Model Town.
Qadri’s move was instantly supported by the PTI and some other opposition parties; giving credibility to the notion that opposition was increasing pressure on the government wind up the political setup before the upcoming Senate elections where ruling PML-N is likely to achieve unassailable two third majority in the upper house.
Earlier, a number of opposition leaders called on Qadri and assured him of support in his possible anti-government movement. These leaders included former chief minister of Gilgit-Baltistan Syed Mehdi Shah, JUP president Qari Zawwar Bahadur.
