Lahore, In a significant show of unity and resilience, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) senior leader Musrat Jamshed Cheema, during an appearance at the anti-terrorism court alongside Jamshed Iqbal Cheema, expressed unwavering support for the founding chairman of PTI and highlighted the collective backing of Pakistan by the people on February 8.
According to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, Musrat Jamshed Cheema articulated the sentiments of the masses regarding their dissatisfaction with the 16-month tenure of the PDM government. Emphasizing the events of February 8, Cheema stated that the people’s support for the PTI founding chairman was essentially a support for Pakistan itself, hinting at attempts to manipulate electoral outcomes which were thwarted by the public’s active participation.
Cheema criticized the current state of the judiciary and legal system, where individuals seeking justice often encounter further injustices. He mentioned the peculiar nature of the charges against them, humorously noting their supposed omnipresence in multiple locations across Rawalpindi, Lahore, and Faisalabad simultaneously on May 9, leading to unfounded legal actions against them.
Reflecting on the broader implications of their struggle, Cheema remarked that despite the hardships faced, the resolve of the PTI leadership and its supporters remains unshaken, underlining a steadfast commitment to democratic values and a peaceful struggle against what he termed as a regime of kleptocrats imposed upon the nation. The senior leader also touched upon the economic downturn, highlighting the steep rise in the prices of agricultural inputs, electricity, and the overall inflation, painting a grim picture of the plight of farmers and the common man under the current administration.
Cheema’s appearance in court was not just a legal formality but also a platform to reiterate PTI’s stance on democracy, economic challenges, and the party’s determination to address the issues facing the country. The meeting with the founding chairman’s sisters, Aleema Khan and Uzma Khan, further symbolized the solidarity and collective resolve within PTI ranks.
