MULTAN: Former premier and opposition leader in Senate Yusuf Raza Gilani Friday said more than 25,000 to 30,000 people would be travelling with Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari during the long march, which would start from Karachi on February 27.
Talking to the media here, he said the PPP long march was not for any province, but for the country. He said the long march would change political scenario of the country. The march would reach Rahim Yar Khan on March 2, after passing through Sindh districts, he said adding that the march participants would arrive in Bahawalpur and Multan on March 3. The PPP had planned a rousing welcome to the participants of the march in Multan, who would stay in Jinnah Town, he said.
The PPP leader in Senate said the party would table no trust motion in assembly, along with increasing people’s pressure on the government. He said it was the PPP policy to discuss political matters with political parties that have also met the PDM, and consultations were under way in that regard.
