Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Monday announced that his party would hold protests across Pakistan on Wednesday against recent increase in the electricity tariffs.

Addressing his supporters at D-Chowk, Khan said the country was being ruled by just 400 families, and that he will expose all those who had looted the country.

Imran further demanded that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Finance Minister Ishaq Dar reduce petroleum prices by at least Rs 15 to reflect the fall in international prices of petroleum.

Urging both Sharif and former president Asif Zardari to declare their wealth, he said the sit-in could end the day that happens.

“Bilawal, I will accept you as a leader when you ask your father Asif Zardari and your ‘uncle’ Nawaz Sharif to declare their assets,” he said. “Speeches don’t make you a leader.”

  1. Dear Imran,____I agree with all you say but don't ask for the impossible. Neither Zardari nor the Sharif Family are going to declare or bring back their wealth. Remember the former PM Gilani fell on his own sword rather than obey the orders of the court. In Pakistan only the super rich can become the PM. They can buy justice. Every body has a price —from lapptops to Mercedes!
