‘Jail Bharo Tehreek’ to commence from Feb 22: Khan

Former PM Imran Khan announced on Friday that the party’s ‘Jail Bharo Tehreek’ (court arrest drive) would commence from Lahore on February 22 (Wednesday). Khan had announced the movement on February 5 after apparently running out of options to press the PML-N-led government to hold elections in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. In a televised address, the PTI chairman said: “I am announcing, God willing, my ‘Jail Bharo Tehreek’ from Wednesday. I am telling my entire party today to prepare.”
