Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) chief Dr Tahirul Qadri said earlier today that the present government would be toppled “within a few weeks”.
He said he was committed to bringing a revolution in Pakistan, adding that a “People’s Revolutionary Council” would be constituted shortly.
The PAT chief called upon people to stop obeying what he termed the illegitimate orders of the authorities.
He said government officials should be held accountable to the state, Constitution and the law, adding that they should not be loyal to rulers but to the system at large.
The PAT chief said salaries of police officials were given by the state and not by Raiwind, adding that this called for the force’s loyalty towards the state.
