The decision was taken during an organisation meeting of the party held on the direction of PAT Chairman Dr Tahirul Qadri.
A spokesperson of PAT told The Express Tribune that they have finalised a strategy for holding protests in four provinces, and that this strategy will be announced on December 17.
He said December 17 would mark six months since the tragic incident took place in Model Town, adding that rallies would also be staged in different cities.
“[In the meeting it was decided] that we will take revenge for our workers. Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif by not making the judicial commission report public is admitting his guilt. Our allied parties will also be invited to participate in the protest,” he said.
The meeting was chaired by Shaikh Zahid Fayaz in which all provincial presidents, general secretaries and presidents of all wings participated. Leadership from Sindh, Balochistan, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan also attended the meeting.

When strike called by MQM is huge loss of public, then why PTI call for strike is “Naya Pakistan”
@A-No.1: Hahaha your hatred for Nawaz and frustration is making you go bonkers, relax you risk a heart attack:)
@Waseem Sarwar: Allah will also judge those who make up things. When Europeans and Americans say that no major issues with election cheating took place and PTI still wants to disrupt the while country because they are selfish, then they will be judged. Same way Allah will judge who instigated 14 people in Model Town to attack police and destroy country. People want to worship Imran Khan and Tahirul Qadri instead of working for success of country?
Apart from a lot of noise and handwaving arguments about stolen elections and fake resignations from Parliament, PTI hasn't really shown why the elected government should be tossed out. It's bad for democracy and bad for continuity of civilian rule. Unfortunately, Imran has no silver bullet to ease the people's hardships, And people need to be patient and vote out the incumbents in 2018 under fairer, more transparent elections if they don't like the work they did during their tenure. Even if there is cronyism and corruption, this government is better than the criminally negligent PPP government.
There are NO short term fixes for Pakistan. The current government has partnered with the Army to fight terrorism, that is a big contribution in itself. Democratic traditions take time to build. Shotgun fixes are no solution.
@Shuaib: and same ALLAH will also judge goons who stole people's mandate, killed innocents in model town. Don't bring ALLAH in it if you are favoring one of the most corrupt people in universe. IK is our only hope.
About time others came out in protests also. Go nawaz Go & get lost.
A country where Law enforcements agencies and Courts cannot provide any justice, people have no other choice but to come on streets and protest for their rights. Tahir ul Qadri is really a voice of the oppressed Pakistanis.
These are the goons that Tribune backs. Shame on all of you. You want to burn Pakistan to the ground. There to be no development or progress or rule of law. Allah will judge all of you. People are dying and you're busy supporting sides.
Remember you had only 13K votes in by election vs. two PMLN backed candidates each grabbing 47K. You are nothing and will be nothing, well perhaps a Cult following a foreign sick leader.
