Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) resumed its long march from the same spot in Wazirabad where the party chief Imran Khan was injured during an attempted assassination.
PTI’s Haqeeqi Azadi march, which demanded early and fair elections, was brought to an abrupt halt after Imran was shot in the leg during a procession.
The former prime minister and several other PTI leaders were injured after a man opened fire near the PTI reception camp at Allahwala Chowk during party’s Haqeeqi Azadi march.
Addressing the party supporters, Shah Mahmood Qureshi said that PTI would not give up on its struggle for freedom despite an assassination attempt.
Qureshi has said that party chairman Imran Khan would soon join his supporters in the long march to Islamabad.
