Azadi March arrives in Lahore today.

Byline: MUHAMMAD IRTAZA

Multan -- Declaring war on Imran-led PTI regime, JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman said yesterday that days of the government had been numbered.

'We declare war against thieves of public's mandate. We don't accept this robbery on public mandate and we'll fight against it,' he said while addressing the participants of Azadi March before leaving for Lahore on Tuesday afternoon. Earlier, the participants of the march reached Multan from Sukkur in wee hours of Tuesday.

Maulana added that the march reflected aspirations of entire nation as all political parties were present on the stage with him. He claimed that incompetent and incapable rulers ruined national economy and entire nation had a consensus that this government was fake. 'They don't possess public's mandate. Masses don't recognise this fake government,' he claimed.

He maintained that another cruel decision to shut down 400 departments had also been made by the government. 'Are they talking about giving jobs or snatching employment?' he questioned.

He pointed out that all opposition political parties supported his march and they were present on stage with him. Fazl claimed that rulers were frightened of even his pictures. 'Why the government is afraid of peaceful people?' he raised a question.

Fazl recalled that Prime Minister Imran Khan had claimed that If Modi would win he would resolve Kashmir issue. 'He won and he has resolved the issue too. They are shedding crocodile's tears after selling out Kashmir,' he accused the rulers. The JUI-F chief said that there would have been an impact if prime minister's speech at UN was that good. 'But there was no impact. The very next day there was voting on Kashmir at the UN and no one voted us,' he cited an example. He thanked all participants...
