Islamabad: Former Premier Imran Khan is set to announce Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) strategy to “counter” ruling government at its ‘Haqeeqi Azadi’ power-show on August 13. In a tweet, PTI Chairman said that he will outline party’s plan of action against “fascism” as he questioned if supporters will “bow down before this conspiracy in fear or, as a nation, face up to challenge?”.Equating government’s “fascist” policies with “Yazidiyat”, Imran Khan said, “Every era has its Yazids” in an apparent nod to holy month of Muharram month of mourning for seventh-century martyrdom of Hazrat Imam Hussain, grandson of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).”

Tweet has come only hours after Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah said that “performers” who give an “Islamic touch” are now in need of a “legal touch”.
