ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) Inquilab March has entered Islamabad after leaving from Model Town, Lahore on August 14.
Islamabad district administration has permitted PAT to switch the venue of their rally from Zero Point to Khayaban-e-Suhrawardy following successful negotiations.
Earlier during a news conference in Jhelum, PAT chief Dr Tahirul Qadri said the Inquilab (revolution) was not against any particular party but rather against the system. Qadri emphasised that his party’s march was peaceful and would remain so.
In response to a question, Qadri said there were 500,000-600,000 people part of his convoy.
