Tribune Take: PTI reaching all demographics

PTI's Karachi rally was diverse both along ethinic and economic lines.

In today’s episode of the Tribune Take we look at the people who showed up to the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) rally in Karachi.

Shaheryar Mirza, reporter for The Express Tribune, says unlike other political party rallies, he witnessed people from all walks of life come together, when a crowd of an estimated 200,000 people gathered near Mazar-e-Quaid in Karachi in support of Imran Khan.

According to Mirza many in the crowd were new to actively partaking in political rallies, saying they finally wanted to take their politics out of their drawing rooms.

Compared to other political rallies held in Karachi, Mirza comments PTI's rally was diverse both along ethnic and economic lines.
