Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan made it apparent that he was talking about the leadership of the army and the premier intelligence agency.
Imran Khan on Saturday again targeted the powerful establishment, saying the people of Pakistan should not be treated like 바카라goats and sheep바카라, even as the coalition government ruled out any negotiations with the former prime minister on holding snap elections.
The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief addressed the participants of his long march on the Day 2 of his protest rally at Shahdara area of Lahore before leading them to Islamabad in a convoy of vehicles.
Continuing his anti-establishment rhetoric, Khan, 70, made it apparent that he was talking about the leadership of the army and the premier intelligence agency.
바카라Don바카라t treat us like animals, that you first call them robbers and then impose them on us, and tell us bhair bakrian (goats and sheep) that now move in this direction,바카라 he said, alluding towards what apparently the establishment used to tell him about rulers before him.
바카라You first tell us that Nawaz Sharif was a robber and now he is clean. Previously Zardari was 바카라Mister 10 per cent바카라 in the world, but now since 바카라we have decided, you also accept him바카라.바카라
Khan also talked about the alleged torture of his party senator Azam Swati, who was arrested earlier this month for a tweet against the Army chief and later released on bail. He alleged that first they "tortured" his chief of staff Shahbaz Gill, then journalist Jameel Farooqi and now 바카라75-year-old Senator Azam Swati바카라.
He told his supporters that he is there to tell them what freedom is. "Free men rule the world," he told his supporters.
"I want to convey a message that we are humans and not sheep," said Khan. Khan also urged army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa to probe the allegation of torture by Swati against two army officers.
He claimed that incidents of torturing people and threats have increased ever since the military officials, named by Swati, have come into power in Islamabad.
Ahead of Khan's long march, PTI leader Swati at a press conference in Islamabad on Friday held two military officials responsible for his custodial torture and called for them to be removed from their posts.
Meanwhile, Defence Minister Khawaja Asif said on social media that elections would be held at the constitutional time and there is 바카라no possibility of negotiations with Khan's party. 바카라Negotiations and consensus among political forces on national issues is a part of the democratic mood,바카라 Asif tweeted. 바카라There is no possibility of the negotiations that PTI is making noise about. Let Imran Khan play this.바카라
바카라Let Imran Khan play at this. At present Indian media is giving him full attention and air time, enjoy it,바카라 he said.
Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb also categorically ruled out any negotiations or talks with Khan.
바카라I바카라ve categorically said this person is not worth talking to 바카라 he is a liar,바카라 she said while addressing a press conference in Islamabad, adding that negotiations could not be done on the streets.
Marriyum says "Imran바카라s narrative against army 바카라demolished in Pakistan, being celebrated in India."
Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb attacked PTI chief Khan over Friday's speech in which he critcised the army바카라s top brass.
바카라This narrative has been destroyed in Pakistan, Imran Khan sahib, and is now only being celebrated in India,바카라 she said while addressing a press conference in Islamabad.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has formed a nine-member committee to look after the law and order situation amid the PTI바카라s long march to Islamabad, state-run PTV reported.
The committee is headed by Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah and includes Marriyum among others.
After Khan바카라s speech, the protest march began moving towards capital Islamabad after spending the night in Lahore.
The long march dubbed as Haqeeqi Azadi March began from the Liberty Chowk area of the city on late Friday afternoon and the participants moved slowly as the PTI held power shows at Ichhra, Mozang, Data Sahib and Azadi Chowk areas of Lahore.
It plans to travel on the historic GT Road and to arrive in Islamabad on November 4 to hold a big protest rally, which may be transformed into a sit-in.
On the second day, the convoy moved to Kamoke via Muridke. Then the rally will proceed towards Gujranwala City where Khan will address a public gathering. From Gujranwala, the rally will proceed to Sialkot via Daska and Sambrial, and it will conclude at Wazirabad for an overnight stay.
The next morning, as per the itinerary of the long march, the convoy will head towards Gujarat, home town of Punjab Chief Minister Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi who will welcome it. Khan will address a public gathering there.
Later, the convoy will head towards Lala Musa and Kharrian. The next day, the march will go to Jhelum where former federal minister Fawad Chaudhary was expected to greet the convoy. Then Khan will travel to Rawalpindi via Gujar Khan.
PTI convoys from north and south of Punjab will also join the long march at Rawat in suburbs of Islamabad from there to march into the capital city.
According to Khan, the purpose of the march was to achieve real freedom by forcing the government to announce snap elections.
He has promised to remain peaceful, and stay from the high security Red Zone housing state buildings and embassies, but many doubt his pronouncements due to past history of U-turns.
He has sought permission to hold the rally which has not been granted yet as the capital administration has sought an explanation from PTI leaders over violations of terms and conditions during its previous public gathering on May 25 in Islamabad.
The government has also asked the party to specify the places for their gathering and also inform the administration the time of calling off the protest, the tentative number of participants and what will be the exact route through which participants of the long march will enter Islamabad.
The government has taken elaborate security measures to deal with the situation as there is fear the violence may erupt if the marchers were forcibly stopped to enter the city.
In a separate interview with Dunya News TV, he said that PTI바카라s demand was early elections. 바카라We don바카라t want interference (by the army), we want elections,바카라 Khan replied. To a question about the sit-in, he did not rule out the possibility by saying the 바카라party has just begun바카라.
Khan has been demanding early elections and threatening a protest march towards Islamabad to force his demands if the government failed to give a date for elections. The term of the National Assembly will end in August 2023 and fresh elections should be held within 60 days.
Khan, who was ousted from power in April after losing a no-confidence vote in his leadership, has talked about a 'threat letter' from the US and claimed that it was part of a foreign conspiracy to remove him as he was not acceptable for following an independent foreign policy. The US has bluntly rejected the allegations.
