May 26,2022:Former Prime Minister Imran Khan has warned Pakistan’s government to set new elections in the next six days or he will again march on the capital along with millions of people.
Khan spoke at a rally of thousands of demonstrators early Thursday morning in Islamabad, aiming to bring down the government and force early elections.
“I had decided that I will sit here until the government dissolves assemblies and announces elections, but of what I have seen in the past 24 hours, they (government) are taking the nation towards anarchy,” the 69-year-old was quoted as saying by Dawn news website.
The government earlier had summoned troops to guard important buildings, including the parliament and offices of the president and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. The measures came following clashes between Khan’s supporters and police.
