PML-N likely to protest PTI, PAT sit-ins

PESHAWAR: The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz is likely to take to streets in the provincial capital to protest the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf and Pakistan Awami Tehreek rallies in Islamabad against the federal government.
“Our workers are forcing us to allow them to block Peshawar roads to counter the Azadi and Inqilab marches in Islamabad but we have strictly asked them to remain peaceful,” PML-N provincial spokesman Nasir Khan Musazai told Dawn on Wednesday.
Musazai said his party did not like to stress out the public by closing roads as that would be extremely immature political move. He said his party believed in negotiations, dialogue and arguments and not in violence.
The PML-N leader said the decision to plan any counter strategy would be taken with prior approval of the central leadership and that the suggestions of the provincial council on the matter would be conveyed to the central leadership for approval.
