\n\u201cImran Khan should have delayed this march but he is stubborn and still wants to come to Rawalpindi.
\n\u201cI reviewed a meeting and all intelligence agencies have alerted me that any terrorist outfit can take advantage of this march. There is a threat to Imran himself,\u201d he stated in a press conference in Islamabad.
\nInterior Minister Rana Sanaullah, in a press conference, said that he has instructed the Islamabad chief secretary and inspector general of police to provide foolproof security to PTI marchers in Rawalpindi.
\n“The stage should be kept bulletproof at every cost […] and entry to the stage should not only be made safe but the people on the stage should be kept an eye on as well,” he said.
\nThe minister also discouraged people from attending the march, saying it was not a movement for “Haqeeqi Azadi but to create instability in the country”.
\n\u00a0Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah,\u00a0 told Imran to come back to the parliament so that the \u201ccountry can move forward\u201d.
\n\u201cIf you don\u2019t do of this then you will be responsible for everything including inflation, economic turmoil and political turmoil. Stop being stubborn and come do politics instead,\u201d he asserted.
\nSanaullah also said that when politicians sit together, deadlocks are broken and decisions are changed.
\n\u201cI\u2019ve seen my leaders amend their decisions after arguments and discussions.\u201d
\n\u00a0Imran won’t get an election date from Rawalpindi
\nInterior Minister Rana Sanaullah has said that PTI Chairman Imran Khan won’t get a date for fresh elections from Rawalpindi.
\n“I will like to tell Imran Khan sahab that there is no purpose for this long march now. You say that you are coming to Rawalpindi for an election date. Imran Khan, you won’t get a date for elections now,” he said at a press conference on Friday.
\n“The establishment won’t get you an election date […] if someone had to give in to your blackmailing, you would have a date […] but the establishment as an institution is standing on the decision that it won’t step out of its constitutional role.”
\nSanaullah further said that if Imran wanted a date for elections he should “become a politician”.
\n“Become a politician and meet your fellows […] meet Zardari, Maulana Fazlur Rehman, Akhtar Mengal, Khalid Magsi, Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui […] discuss the elections with them […] you can even meet Nawaz Sharif and Shehbaz Sharif, they won’t refuse,” he added.
