Pakistan Awami Tehreek Chairman Dr Tahir-ul-Qadri on Saturday announced his retirement from politics and the chairmanship of the party. “I am taking retirement from PAT chairmanship and politics,” Qadri said in a video message on social media. “It was due to our struggle that the accountability process began and the corrupt mafia has now been held accountable.”
He continued, “We tried to stop unethical means from coming into the assembly and put all our energies to stop these ways. Unfortunately, in our politics, there is no room for the poor and the middle-class people.” “My political struggle is only 10 per cent of my overall working which I have been doing side by side,” Qadri said. “We have focused on eradicating illiteracy from Pakistan and formed 5000 educational institutions around Pakistan.”
