Talking to media outside Lahore High Court, PTI leader Umar said: “How can we sit with them while cases are being registered against us?”
“The Constitution is being violated by registering cases of treason against the opponents and all the government resources are devoted to arrests and detentions,” he added. While mentioning the by-elections, he said: “Governors are not ready to provide the dates for the elections,” adding that 220 million people of Pakistan will not allow anyone to seize their rights.
