Pakistan: Jamaat-e-Islami to hold sit-ins in Lahore against PTI govt's policies

Lahore, Pakistan: Pakistan's Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) leaders are all set to start their demonstration and sit-ins against Prime Minister Imran Khan-led Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government’s disastrous economic policies and selling of the State Bank to IMF from Gujrat on Feb 6.

The party leaders will participate in sit-ins at five different points of Lahore on Mar 23.

Announcing the decisions of the steering committee on Monday, JI chief Sirajul Haq told The News International that the protest movement will prove the last nail in the coffin of the corrupt capitalist system and its protectors. 

The PTI government and opposition parties jointly sold the state bank to the IMF as both sides were unable to resist the pressure of the international lender, he said in a statement from Mansoorah.
