    Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan announced on Tuesday that the upcoming Friday will be marked as ‘Go Nawaz Go’ Day and a 'Day of Deliverance'.

    Speaking to the participants of the Azadi March, Khan said he will hold the protest movement till Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif resigns. He added that he will spend Eidul Adha on the same ground too. “Today is the 34th day of the protest and there has been an increase in the participation of the masses,” he said.

    Khan further said that he will burn his electricity bill on Friday to remind the rulers that they have doubled the power rates.

    He alleged that PM Sharif was going to spend another 4 crore rupees on his US Trip. “The Sharif brothers do not care for the masses. See the lifestyles of their children,” he said.

    On the occasion, he said that he will go to the court tomorrow (Wednesday) to get the arrested PTI workers released. “The Constitution of Pakistan allows for peaceful protests. Why then have the PTI workers been arrested?” he questioned.

    “Police, which is supposed to assist the masses in getting justice, instead is working for the rulers and going against the law,” he said.
