“Under the programme, one million enthusiastic youngsters would go from door-to-door to convey the party’s manifesto of change to the common people to pave the way for o positive change in across the country.
Referring to his political opponents’ criticism and back-to-back surveys claiming decline in the PTI’s popularity graph, Imran Khan asked his political foes to look at the mammoth gathering to know that the PTI’s victory in the upcoming elections was a writing on the wall.
“Those claiming that tsunami has subsided should themselves see this tsunami of the youth. They should know that the tsunami is rather getting more aggressive by the each day passing as the polls are nearing. Those who are afraid of the PTI’s tsunami would have to suffer another shock on March 23 when they would have to see a flood of the people of Lahore and it would not be a mere tsunami but it would be a ‘tsunama’, which would help sweep away all the corrupt forces in the forthcoming elections,” Imran Khan said.
“Nawaz and Bhutto’s suffix are a pre-requisite if you want to become leader of PML-N or PPP and that is why Bilawal Zardari had to change his name and added suffix Bhutto to become chairman of the party, which never to be happened in the PTI,” Imran Khan vowed.
“I even could not think to make my son, Salman Khan, a leader of PTI, because leaders could not be made by adding family suffix,” he said and added that the PTI has taken up the gauntlet to eliminate the hereditary and dynastic politics from the country forever.
The PTI Chairman said that corruption and tax evading were the major ills that brought the country to a verge of collapse and leadership of the two major parties were mainly responsible for this, because they transferred their wealth to abroad by plundering the national kitty.
