PTI workers are holding meetings across the provincial capital, while banners and promotional material for the rally have begun appearing in different areas of the city. Party leader Zubair Ahmad Qureshi said workers from other provinces would also attend the gathering, which will take place near the Peshawar Motorway Plaza.
Qureshi called the event one of the biggest rallies in the province’s history and said PTI would observe August 5 as a “day of referendum.” He also said Chief Minister Sohail Afridi would make an important announcement about the party’s future strategy.
The PTI leader said party workers had prepared for a movement seeking the release of the party’s founding chairman and would not compromise on the demand. He added that the party had expanded its outreach campaign and started contacting members of the business community.
Qureshi said PTI would also observe August 5 as a Black Day and hold a strike. However, he stressed that the party would keep its protest peaceful.
