PDM not backing down as start preparations to hold rally in Multan

According to the reports, the local administration sealed Qilla Kohna Qasim Bagh in Multan with containers. 30 containers have been placed around the venue to bar the opposition parties from conducting the rally.

Responding to the move, former premier Yousaf Raza Gillani has asked whether only PDM is bound to follow the law. "Workers are being arrested from their houses," he claimed.

Meanwhile, PML-N vice president Maryam Nawaz said that she will attend the PDM Multan rally on the instructions of party supremo and ex-PM Nawaz Sharif. Maryam Nawaz said in her statement that Nawaz Sharif had directed her to forget personal grief and participate in the rally.

Meanwhile, PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto has also decided to address the rally via videolink as he was gone into isolation after contracting coronavirus.
