ISLAMABAD, Aug 11 (NNI): Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan said the nation especially minorities should join his struggle for equal rights in the country as Pakistan cannot go ahead without a rule of law and justice.
Imran Khan addressed the Minorities Workers Convention in Islamabad on Thursday.
Imran said he will stage a public meeting and celebrate the real independence movement of the PTI on Saturday at Lahore Hockey Stadium.
PTI Chairman Imran Khan said minorities have equal rights in Pakistan and his party was in a struggle for this cause so all the minorities should join his Lahore rally on August 13.
He declared the forced conversions (of girls especially) in Sindh against the teaching of Islam. He announced that following the real Islam, his party will oppose the forced conversion in Pakistan.
Imran Khan has said that they will tell the nation in the August 13 rally in Lahore how to take Haqiqi Azadi (real independence).
The ex-PM said that no society could progress unless people were granted rights. Our war is to retake our freedom from slavery, he added.
Notably, PTI chairman is expected to reveal his next course of action in his upcoming public rally against what he labels an ‘imported government’ that was imposed following his ouster and after he clawed back power in Punjab after last month’s by-elections.
Imran Khan said that a small clique was imposed on the country and their struggle was against them. He reiterated that Pakistan could not move forward unless a system of justice was established in the country. He said that he started the movement for justice which was actually the movement for rights which translates to gaining true independence. He cited examples of the developed world and Islamic history to sensitize people about how advancement in society was directly linked to the dispensation of justice. Imran Khan also condemned forced conversions and termed it against Islamic values.
He vowed to protect the rights of minorities in the country and said that they see every minority member in the country as an equal citizen. NNI
