LAHORE: Imran Khan, chairman Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI), said on Saturday that his party’s “accountability march” was to mount pressure on the country’s institutions to support it uncover corruption in the country.
Speaking to the participants of the rally in Lahore, Imran said, PTI was seeking answers from the government over the Panama Leaks Scandal for the last five months, but Islamabad could not satisfy his party and the opposition.
“Institutions like National Accountability Bureau (NAB), Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) and the Election Commission of Pakistan have already lost their credibility,” he said.
He said that government institutions got huge responsibility to make Pakistan corruption-free.
PTI launched its “accountability march” in the walled city on Saturday. Strict security measures were taken to protect the march with at least 5,000 policemen deployed at a nine-kilometer-long route of the rally.
Roads leading to three main hospitals in Lahore were sealed with containers.
