PTI warns of street protests

Asad Qaiser warns party would resort to streets to assert its legal and constitutional rights

ISLAMABAD:

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Asad Qaiser on Friday issued a warning that the party would take to the streets to assert its legal and constitutional rights.

Qaiser, a former National Assembly speaker, conveyed his frustration on a private news channel, emphasising the party's intention to resort to public protests if institutions continue to disregard their grievances."Once we know that the country's institutions have no regard for our complaints, we will come out on the roads to fight for our rights," stated Qaiser, highlighting alleged rigging during the February 8 elections.

He expressed disappointment, asserting that all institutions seemed compromised, leaving the PTI with no choice but to consider street protests as a means to secure their legal and constitutional rights.
