Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf on September 21 Lahore Regarding the meeting in Kahna area where Muslim League Nawaz Calling it a failed show, right there PTI I think it was a successful show.
While political analysts say that the government’s actions regarding this meeting will give birth to more negative trends regarding democracy and politics in the country.
PTI was given conditional permission by the Punjab government to hold a rally in Lahore. The meeting hall also did not meet the will of PTI and the time of the end of the meeting was fixed at six o’clock in the evening.
To find out on whose behalf all this was done, we contacted PML-N leader and Punjab Information Minister Uzma Bukhari.
Uzma Bukhari while talking to Independent Urdu said: ‘What action did we take against PTI in the Lahore rally?
‘Their own DJ refused to play music, the police and management went and told them that the rally was over.
‘Please end the meeting and all go down the line like good children and walk out of the hall. What action was taken in it?’
He further said: Muslim League-N or People’s Party, no one has the track record of PTI, the people of these parties do not come with weapons. The people of these parties do not provoke and talk dirty in the meetings.
“There is a culture and procedure in the meetings of other parties. PTI is not a political party and even tomorrow if a chief minister is found smashing vehicles with a rifle like AK 47, after that someone will think that it is a political party. It is His will.’
Uzma Bukhari added, ‘We have not taken any action against PTI, these people have been violating the highway and have been beating people and tearing the heads of policemen. They had made an agreement with the administration that this Will be punctual. If they do not agree to this agreement, they will not accept it.
“The action that should have been taken against them has not taken place.”
Meanwhile, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Information Secretary Punjab Shaukat Basra while talking to Independent Urdu said: ‘Yesterday’s rally was successful despite all the fascist tactics of the government, 90 percent of people remained on the streets and 10 percent of people walked a distance of more than 15 kilometers. After deciding, they reached the meeting place.
He said: ‘We ended the rally on time because we wanted to thwart the government’s conspiracy because the government wanted our workers to give up their patience and give the government another chance for May 9.’
He said that when the government cut off the electricity and turned off the microphone, the PTI leadership wisely asked the workers to disperse, although only around eight hundred policemen were present.
“If there was even a little resistance from our side, maybe the policemen themselves would have torn their uniforms or shot themselves and blamed the PTI and another action would have started.”
He said that ‘a few days ago Maulana Fazlur Rehman held a meeting at Minar Pakistan, Tehreek-e-Labaik and Jamaat-e-Islami held sit-ins in Islamabad and reached the red zone, they were given open permission, but with reference to PTI. All fascist tactics are being used.
“The reality is that there is no such thing as democracy, rule of law and human rights in Pakistan and the country is being run by a dictatorship.”
Regarding Ali Amin Gandapur, he said that he is the elected Chief Minister of a province and all kinds of barriers were erected from Attock Bridge to Lahore to stop him from participating in the rally.
According to him: ‘Imran Khan’s order was to reach the assembly hall, so he just kept removing these obstacles and he did not do anything illegal.
According to political analyst Mubasher Bukhari: ‘During martial law regimes, many measures were taken to prevent political parties from engaging in political activities, including arrests of political workers, blocking of roads and disallowance of public gatherings. ‘
He said: ‘Political parties that thrived under the influence of fortune tellers, when they came to power, started using the same tactics on their political opponents.
“For example, when Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf came to power, they made false cases against political opponents to stop them from political activities and also set up barriers for meetings like Maryam Nawaz’s meeting in Mandi Bahauddin in 2021. The water was released.’

According to him: ‘After 2011, PTI abandoned democratic and political attitude and that is the reason why negative trends and attitudes of intolerance were born in our politics.
“PTI is still doing politics of hatred instead of political reconciliation but other democratic parties should not be influenced and should maintain their democratic identity.”
Continuing, he said that the PML-N government did not expect the actions they took in Islamabad’s 8th September and Lahore’s rally.
“These actions give the impression that the Muslim League leadership is either afraid of the popularity of PTI or has adopted an undemocratic attitude under the influence of some unseen force.”
He said that ‘turning a cattle market outside Lahore into a meeting place, arresting local leaders and fixing the meeting hours in a wedding hall like a wedding ceremony and cutting off the electricity and removing the microphone as soon as the time ends. There is a question mark on the democratic behavior of Muslim League-Nawaz.
He said: ‘Apparently, it seems that PML-N has decided not to hold any rally in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as long as there is a PTI government and Ali Amin Gandapur is the Chief Minister there. .’
According to Mubasher Bukhari: ‘This behavior will also encourage other political forces to create such obstacles in the democratic and political activities of their political opponents if they are in power.’
