The wait ends and the showdown for “show of political strength” begins, as the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) rolls up its sleeves to take out a rally from Nasir Bagh to Bhaati Chowk today (Friday).
The rally bearing the motto of uprising against the federal government for causing unabated load shedding, price hike and corruption, was the second round of the “Go Zardari Go Movement”, which PML-N President Nawaz Sharif launched in Dera Ghazi Khan on October 19. The PML-N rally was expected to gather more than 50,000 people. In absence Nawaz, who was in Turkey, Punjab CM Shahbaz Sharif will address the protest. The third round will start on November 4 in Faisalabad, which was likely to be addressed by Nawaz.
In terms of preparation of the rally, a high-rise stage built with two containers was positioned at centre of Bhaati Chowk. Special sitting arrangements were made solely for women. Free parking stands were established in which motorcycles will be given free parking tickets. To make the rally a success, PML-N leaders and activists remained busy until wee hours to give final touches to the rally. With a massive display of lightening, the night wore a look of a bright sunny day. Party MNAs and MPAs continued to frequent the spot to review final arrangements. Preparation to establish the stage got of the ground after Isha prayers. In a bid to keep the morale high, protest camps were setup. With hiring of special drummers, patriotic songs were played. Party leaders accompanied by police personnel personally combed the rally route and surroundings areas from Nasir Bagh to Bhaati Chowk. Law enforcement agencies were also seen heighten security arrangements.
Various PML-N wings, including labour wing, youth wing, lawyers wing, traders wing, cultural wing, women wing and minority wing, oversees wing held their respective meetings and took stock of the final preparedness. The PML-N gave special focus on arrangement regarding logistic and transportation to bring flood of people in the rally. Publicity blitz campaign on the print and electronic media also continued to heat up the situation. Various parts of the city were dotted with banners bearing pictures of the Sharifs besides traditional slogans, “Challo Challo Nasir Bagh Challo.”
According to an eyewitness, rally preparations were looking like drills for general elections. Refreshment and food arrangements for workers and organisers revived memories of elections. While arrangements were giving impression that it was not a rally of Lahore but rally of Punjab. Instead of Lahore-based member of provincial and national assemblies, herds of PML-N parliamentarians hailing from every part of provinces poured into the city with buses filled of people. Long queues were seen on different arteries and major intersections.
On special instructions of PML-N central leaders, including Chaudhry Nisar, Mushahidullah Khan, Khawaja Asif, Ishaq Dar and others reached one day before the rally and monitored final arrangements. The CM Secretariat also witnessed rush of PML-N leaders, coordinators, activists and various heads of provincial bureaucracy. Some political experts termed the selection of rally route from Nasir Bagh to Bhaati Chowk as a smart move, saying that the route was already so thickly populated that even a under average crowd would look bigger. So the PML-N was in win-win situation, they added.
PML-N MPA Khawaja Salman Rafiq told journalists that all routes for the rally had been allocated to party parliamentarians. Women wing leaders and others had been tasked separately to bring women crowd from special entry points. a show.

    • Dear Mr. Zia,

      Shahbaz sahib to apna farz poori tarah ada kar rahay hain…..Lahore ki malqiyat ke dawedaar (King of ball tempring) ko be kahye ke woh be dengue kay maray lahore waloon ka haal poch lain…

    • Imran is also born in same culture where double standards prevails….Why Imran Khan is so soft for Army now? why Imran is running whole political campaign on Anti US feelings and Anti Nawaz agenda….He has not bring even once solutions to the core problems. US remains in region or not…Will it effect common man of Pakistan? I am dead sure that Pakistan problems will increase after US will go back and Taliban will beat your ladies with sticks on not wearing veil.

      You will see….It is not must that State should run with religion…but it must that State should run with full JUSTICE. Imran Khan ki justice sirf anti US and Anti Nawaz tak he hai….agay uss ka muh band ho jata hai…aisa banda kia khak insaaf karay ga…Double Standard.

      • oooooooooooo
        so, you're saying k taliban are "not beating our women" jxt coz of America ??
        meray bhai, PML-Ners use the word "Agh'yaar" instead of directly using AMERICA, probably because they have a great fear from Goraas, but Mr. Khan is the only politician in Pakistan, who slams US, while he's in their country infact on face !!
        my dear new PML-Ner, u shud try to realize the fact, if Imran will cut the votes of PML-N, then, will he not cut vote bank of PPP ?? you guys (PML-N) can just compaign against his character and do "Aurtoo'n wali harkatain",i.e. character assassination …..but can't show the real things………. My challenge …..

    • Nop.i visited hospitals and dispensaries. Lahore's Salute to Shahbaz Shrif. It is the Shahbaz Shrif and his team due to their efforts a such a high profile disease is cured.90% of the patients are very thank full and giving prayers to Shahbaz Shrif.yes in result borad did not perform well. but in education sector amazing work is done.70 thousand teachers w/o any political affliction and thousands of I.T labs. Even in Manhala the Village at Lahore Boarder 4 high schools are working with very high standard. I studied 4 years in PU from 2007-2011.Yes in PU students support Imran but Jamiyat holds 70% of the student. One thing 80% of the student are from outside the lahore.Imran is playing in the hands of PPP and media. Imran have to revisit its strategy otherwise according to my research he ll hardly get 7-10 National Assembly seats from Pakistan PML n won all their constituies with the margin of attest 23000 to 90.0000 votes.At 2nd it was ppp.So no space for imran in lahore.He must have to think. otherwise i am sure after next general election he ll surely say the election process is fake.votes are fake etc….as in shaiwal……A candidate who got just 1300 votes it symbol was "bat" the symbol of PTI.PTI supported him. Then after the result Imran said we do not Know this person……… Dangue test if free all over Lahore.Except in Imran's Labourtry.Even madia is biased ……..to get seats in National Assembly he had to plan well……………..

    • This country is not property of any one. It is not matter of giving chance….It is matter of excellence and intellect….Peoples of Pakistan should select the person and that must be one who gives solutions to the problems….

      • and imran is the only solution dude !!
        what has PML-N offered us in Punjab ???
        numerous things I can mention, besides, Imran is much more educated, intelligent, honest, and have all the necessary skills to run anything,whether its cricket team or its Shaukat Khanam, or its Namal or its a party……………… every where he just comes and showers………. this is real capability and managerial skills !!

  1. i think dengue brothers have nothing for poor people..so they just want to divert attention from the problems of dengue and examination results…………..
