Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Fazlur Rehman on Wednesday announced that his party’s anti-government ‘Azadi March’ to the capital will now take place on October 31 instead of October 27.
Speaking to reporters, he said the party would now join Kashmiris in observing October 27 as a black day across the country in protest against the Indian occupation of Jammu and Kashmir. Ignoring the calls of other opposition parties to delay the proposed long march, Rehman had announced last Thursday that his party had decided to hold the anti-government march to Islamabad on Oct 27.
His party had formally sought permission from the Islamabad administration to hold the so-called Azadi March on October 27 at D-Chowk located in the federal capital’s red zone.“The JUI-F will be holding the Azadi March on October 27, 2019, at D-Chowk, Islamabad, exercising its democratic and Constitutional right under Articles 16 and 17 of the Constitution against the incumbent government,” read an application submitted to the Islamabad chief commissioner on Tuesday by JUI-F leader Senator Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Haideri, through his counsel Kamran Murtaza.
But Rehman said today that the march will “begin” on Oct 27. He said caravans will express solidarity with Kashmiris on Oct 27 and then leave for the capital.
