If this right is snatched from us we will take revenge today or tomorrow.”Fazl said, “Our peaceful sentiments should not be taken as a weakness. Pakistan is the country of all of us. No one has the right to impose oneself on the nation by stealing votes.”He said they did not accept the incumbent government’s right to rule the country from the day one of its formation.Fazl said that the rulers will have to resign, adding that the entire nation was ready and committed to send the illegal and incompetent government packing. He said that
Azadi March will start on October 27 and will enter Islamabad on October 31.He said that no contact has been made for negotiations adding that if there is any suggestion regarding ending
Azadi March then it should be brought forward and we will consider it.The JUI-F chief said that the rulers said earlier they will provide container but now they are saying they will not allow passing from the roads.Fazl said Imran has sold Kashmir adding that Imran Khan did nothing diplomatically to stop India from revoking Article 370 adding that we were failed to secure the US confidence and friendly countries did not vote for us.Fazl said it was promised that 10 million jobs will be
