ISLAMABAD – People from various walks of life participated in Aman Ittehad’s peace rally and marched from the National Press Club to the Parliament House to express solidarity with those suffering from violence and repression.
The participants of the rally demanded that the government must take strict action against state and non-state actors that break the law and propagate or encourage militancy and extremism by their words or actions.
Addressing the participants, Ali Asghar Khan, rally organiser, said, “Peace in Pakistan is possible if the state gives primacy to the welfare of its citizens”. He said that Aman Ittehad rallies at 108 locations in every part of Pakistan were an expression of the determination of citizens to bring a change that would improve their lives.
