ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Saturday ruled out the possibility of the government granting permission to the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) for holding rallies and warned that cases will be lodged against organisers, ARY News reported.
In an exclusive interview with a private news channel, he said the opposition parties are holding public gatherings just to protect their plundered money. The prime minister, however, made it clear that he will not come under any pressure.
“We will lodge FIRs against everyone – from the kursi wala (the one who install chairs) to the sound system handlers in case of violations,” he said.
“We (PTI) cancelled our all public gatherings by keeping in view the second Covid-19 wave,” said Imran Khan and added that the government had closed educational institutions as well as the indoor restaurants due to a spike in Covid-19 cases.
Prime Minister Imran Khan has once again categorically stated that no NRO will be given to the corrupt leaders. “I am saying this again even If I were to leave the premiership I would but will not give any NRO (National Reconciliation Ordinance) to the opposition.”
