Other PDM leaders will also reach Kashmir Chowk in the form of rallies, where they will ride a special container and march towards the ECP.

The Opposition leaders are planning to stage a protest there against delay in the announcement of the PTI foreign funding case which is pending for the last six years.

Meanwhile, the PML-N leadership has directed the party’s Rawalpindi organisation including MNAs, MPAs, and ticket-holders to bring a maximum number of people to the protest venue to show its strength on January 19. 

PML-N Punjab spokesperson Azma Bukhari said that PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto would also reach Islamabad to attend the PDM steering committee meeting and hopefully he would also join the PDM rally outside the ECP.
