PTI postpones long march to October 4 from Peshawar
The PTI has moved its planned long march towards Islamabad from September 27 to October 4, starting from Peshawar.
Provincial chief announces new date
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi confirmed the change during a press conference on Friday. He stated that the party's political committee unanimously agreed to begin the protest on October 4 from Peshawar.
Meeting held at CM house
Sources say the decision came after a meeting chaired by PTI Chairman Gohar Ali Khan at the Chief Minister House. Reports indicate that some leaders complained about mobilization for the original September 27 date before the committee resolved to proceed.
Party aims to sustain pressure
A proposal was floated during the meeting to avoid committing to a final date in order to keep pressure on the government. The party intends to go ahead with the march regardless of previous delays or logistical challenges.
