Speaking to reporters after the meeting, PkMAP leader Usman Kakar said the opposition will make ‘every democratic process’ a part of their anti-government movement. He said the future strategy for the protest will be made public once it is finalised. He also accused the government of not being serious regarding negotiations with the opposition. The JUI-F chief said that it is mandatory to raise voice whether a Muslim or non-Muslim forcefully comes into power, adding that they have raised voice against a government which forcefully came into power. Fazlur Rehman further asked the Prime Minister Imran Khan to keep sitting on the chair “but this nation doesn’t recognise you as its ruler.”
