ISLAMABAD: Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed has asked the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) — an anti-government alliance of political parties — to defer its long march plan until the end of Ramazan, which will begin in the middle of April.
Speaking at a press conference here on Tuesday, the minister said the PDM, which had changed several decisions, should also revisit its decision to launch the long march from March 26.
However, he assured the opposition that there would be no obstacles in the way of the PDM if it continued with the same plan and unless the law was taken into hands. “We will be ready to facilitate you like we did during your protest outside the Election Commission in Islamabad,” he said, referring to the protests over prolonged delay in decision on the foreign funding case against the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf.
