Pakistan Tehrik-Insaf (PTI) Lahore President Mahmood-ur-Rashid on Friday criticised the Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) leaders for claiming to provide security to Mansoor Ijaz but could not capture the American consulate’s vehicle that had crushed Abad-ur-Rahman last year.
The PTI Lahore president was addressing a press conference, when the former PML-N member provincial assembly (MPA) Peter Gill announced his decision to join the PTI.
Mahmood-ur-Rashid said that it was a tragedy that the PML-N leaders were claiming to provide security to Mansoor Ijaz, while the family members of Abad-ur-Rehman were begging for justice.
Welcoming Peter Gill to PTI, he said that the PTI will work for the minorities’ rights in the country after coming into power, adding that the PTI manifesto will be prepared by March 15.
He said that on Saturday (today), PTI will welcome Javaid Hashmi in Lahore and the party may give him the responsibility as a party office bearer. The workers of Insaf Students Federation (ISF) and Traders Wing will join the party in a rally for the welcome of Javaid Hashmi.
