Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman and former prime minister Imran Khan on Friday announced that his party would launch their ‘Jail Bharo Tehreek’ on Wednesday, Feb 22, and said the interim governments would become unconstitutional if they failed to hold elections in 90 days.
Addressing workers through video link on Friday, he said that after 90 days, the caretaker governments would be subject to the constitution violation clause.
The former prime minister said wars and earthquakes don’t destroy a country but injustice does. He said the human rights were being violated during the past 10 months by targeting the political opponents, adding that party leaders Shahbaz Gill and Azam Swati had been subjected to torture in the jail.
“Whatever was done with former federal minister Azam Swati shocked the entire nation,” he said and added an attempt was made to silence Fawad Chaudhary and Sheikh Rashid by arresting them.
