Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leadership on Tuesday slightly changed the party stance over starting of ‘Jail Bharo Tehreek’ (Voluntary arrest movement).
It is worth mentioning here that PTI chief and former prime minister, Imran Khan last week had announced to start the same movement soon. He had asked party workers to be ready for this movement. But on Tuesday sources within the PTI said the party’s senior leadership is considering getting its candidates to surrender for the movement and contest elections from the prison.
The second option being considered by PTI is that the candidates contesting elections avoid surrendering for the movement. It has been learnt that Imran Khan has held a consultation with the senior party leadership on both the options for the movement.
Earlier, Imran Khan asserted that he would soon announce the date for ‘Jail Bharo’ movement, calling on the party workers to be prepared for the movement.
