Dr Allama Tahirul Qadri’s plan to take on the government in coming days has already creating ripples in the political circles across the country as to what the cleric is up to this time after a break of about a year from national politics.
The Pakistan Awami Tehreek is all set to flex its muscles once again, organising protests in different cities against what it calls the alleged poor governance of the Sharifs and resultant corruption and price hike in the country.
Interestingly, Dr Qadri will not be in the country to lead this protest and will address the protest demonstrations and rallies through a video link from Canada. His party sources say that Dr Qadri will visit Pakistan early next year most likely on the occasion of Rabiul Awal.
The protest campaign will be kicked off from Lahore on December 29, followed by protests in Rawalpindi on January 5, in Karachi January 12 and Peshawar on January 19.
The mandate that Dr Qadri has given to his party is to gather 10 million people to bring about revolution in the country and see the back of existing political leadership.
The PAT officials are contacting local political leaders capable of bringing out people to the venue of protests or lend them hand anyway in mobilizing public to the cause.
In Lahore, the PAT is hoping to organise a protest at Minar-i-Pakistan or somewhere in the heart of the city.
“Nawaz Sharif’s recent Amnesty Scheme for businessmen is an example of blatant corruption they are doing. The rulers in fact have made way for the vested interests to legalise their wealth amassed through corrupt practices. We will resist such a corruption in coming days,” said Faizul Islam, the PAT spokesman.
As the PAT is busy putting together its plans which will again test Dr Qadri’s abilities to mobilise public, the rumour mills are active once again in the country. The buzz as before is “who is behind Qadri?”
Qadri and Imran Khan closing ranks against the Sharifs in coming days is talk of the town. Political analysts believe that Qadri has a mass following. People are aggrieved due to worst condition in the country. As such situation is tailor-made for a person like Qadri to create some impact.

  3. Due to bad governance of the two biggest political parties, the public have been forced to look for alternatives. Imran Khan stepped forward with the slogan of Change but even he has not been able to deliver.

    Before elections everybody wanted elections. Only Dr Tahir ul Qadri said this electrol system can not bring change, it needs to be revamped. After elections Imran Khan himself along with many others admitted that what ever Dr Tahir ul Qadri had said and was demanding it was all correct.

    Dr Tahir ul Qadri once again has emerged with the slogan of Save the State not the Politics. He has convinced me that he is a leader of clear vision and understanding. I will be joining him Inshallah.

  4. Dr. Tahir-ul-Qadri has been working for a peaceful revolution in Pakistan in order to restore the true democracy and protect the basic rights of people of Pakistan.

  10. Dr Tahir-ul-Qadri 's VOICE is National Voice …his struggle must be' appreciated by every One .. His Vision is like Ocean …. If every pond .. River … and lake knows what the sea is?…. No matters someone agree or disagree ,…like or dislike …But no One can break the way of Real Change ,.. no pond and lake can pollute the mission of Ocean ..we must Remember that water of Ocean always lead its own way …!
