Accordinah News: Since being removed from office, Khan has continued to call for early elections in Pakistan. Getti revealed that next Friday, former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan plans to lead a protest march with his followers from the eastern city of Lahore to the Pakistani capital, Islamabad.
Pakistan is witnessing demonstrations in support of the former Prime Minister, after being convicted of the Supreme Court of Elections to sell gifts from foreign personalities and heads of state illegally, which led to his removal from his parliamentary seat.
In a press conference held on Tuesday night in Lahore, Khan stated: “I decided to launch the long march, commencing from Friday at 11:00 am, from Freedom Square in Lahore to Islamabad.”
There are roughly 380 kilometres between the two cities.
“I march in order to put pressure on the government to announce the conduct of elections immediately,” he continued.
He urged his party’s members and supporters to abstain from violence.
Khan continues to claim early elections in Pakistan since his dismissal from his post in a vote to block confidence in the Legislative Council last April, but the government is committed to the specified date corresponding to the month of October or November next year.
The verdict handed down last week made Pakistan’s political and economic uncertainty this year worse.
The 70-year-old cricketer, who entered politics, was accused of using his position as prime minister from 2018 to 2022 to purchase and resell presents that were brought back to Pakistan on trips abroad and were valued at more than 140 million Pakistani rupees (634920. 63 dollars).
