The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has hinted at the possibility of a long march in response to alleged election rigging and the continued detention of party founder Imran Khan.
PTI leader Hamad Azhar took to social media platform X to convey the party’s stand on the matter. He stressed that there is no chance of “moving forward” until the release of former Prime Minister Imran Khan. Azhar also stressed the importance of releasing all political leaders and workers and returning the nation’s mandate to its rightful place.
In a series of tweets, Azhar warned those in the corridors of power against underestimating the resolve of the people who could easily digest the “injustice and daylight robbery” of their mandate and hinted at rapid progress towards a decisive long march. He declared that the entire nation would take to the streets in solidarity with the PTI cause.

The PTI’s stand signals a firm resolve to uphold justice and uphold democratic principles, setting the stage for a potential mass mobilization in the coming days.
On the other hand, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur also announced protests in Peshawar against alleged election rigging.
