PAT’s Rawalpindi district office-bearers resign

RAWALPINDI, (SANA): District office-bearers of the Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) tendered their resignations alleging that party chief Dr Tahirul Qadri had incited people to violence.

Addressing a press conference in Rawalpindi, they said that call for slaughtering and physical engagement with policemen is not within the domains of decency.

The district post-bearers also claimed that they were not consulted over Dr Tahirul Qadri’s press conference in Lahore on Sunday, adding that the party chief took decisions without taking any one else into confidence.

The resigning officers said that calling for a head for a head never brought revolutions, adding that they were not in favour of taking the law into their own hands.

Talking about the resignation of its party-bearers, PAT’s Punjab president Basharat Jaspal said that ‘PML-N’s planted individuals left the revolutionary party on their own.’

He added that those in favour of violent rulers did not like the peaceful platform of the PAT.

Earlier during the day, Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) chief Dr Tahirul Qadri announced that his party will observe a ‘Day of Martyrs’ on August 10, to commemorate the lives lost in the model town clashes on June 17.
