I slamabad: Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif has announced that a protest movement will be launched this week if Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani does not step down.
Speaking to the media after the party’s Central Working Committee (CWC) meeting Monday, PML-N head invited all political forces, including Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI), Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) dissdent Naheed Khan, to join the movement.
“Comply with the Supreme Court’s orders. Resign from the prime minister’s office. Or get ready to face a protest movement,” said the PML-N chief.
The party chief called on ‘every Pakistani’ to come out on the streets to take the country forward, adding that the party will also approach the Election Commission of Pakistan to pass a decision regarding Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani’s disqualification.
He warned that there could also be a long march if the government refuses to implement the SC orders. “This is a do or die operation,” he said.
Nawaz Sharif said the issue of Prime Minister Gilani’s resigning was a matter of concern for the entire nation.
“We have launched our protest movement today from inside the house and will later protest outside the house as well,” Nawaz said.
He added that all over the world, leaders step down from their posts after being convicted but here the government ‘makes fun’ of the court orders and the leaders keep ‘sticking’ to their posts.
WATCH
Leaving the Office by the PM is mendatory, All the citizens of an independent nation must obey the directions of courts, What so ever, otherwise PPP is leading the country towards Civil disobediance and vilance which has already been started in Karachi. I am with the verdict of Nawaz to save the nation from influential group of people.
Buhat der kardi meharbaan aate aate .. Khan will not accept it, he will chose his own path and then conduct his own long march!
This is what should happen ! I think :S

it is only a statment …..no stategy no date for long march no clearity about resignations NS should clear these things with regard to public preparation mentally
Nawaz has taken the first step….Heard PTI leaders are still whining about the APDM….I think the world has move forward and so should PTI.
Hahah look at all PTI ppl response to this offer on all websites and check PMLn ppl’s and you say you are ‘not’ scared of PTI ??
We simply can’t trust PMLN. Nawaz has betrayed us three times before. He ditches others selfishly. Ive voted for plmln last time but not anymore. Nawaz is just copying politics of Imran. Imran has annouced the tsunami march before him. This has proved that nawaz has no vision no strategy thats why he is followin steps of Imran. What a copycat noon leak.
Protest..???? Long March …?? Pressurize..???
Sorry Sir, you do not have guts to do any of these. But yet you were forced to make an announcement for “Long March”, afterall, PTI has already annouced it so it was imperative that such a statement should be released.
If you have an iota of sincerity, simply RESIGN from both assemblies. But your lust of power won’t let you do this.
Keep thinking that you still successful in making awam fool.
My full support with our Nation’s Hero Mian Nawaz Sharif of PML N
