Pakistan: Khyber CM Gandapur asks PTI supporter to “Prepare for final call”
Gandapur delivered this message on Saturday outside Adiala Jail following his meeting with PTI founder Imran Khan, the Express Tribune reported.
Pakistan on Thursday welcomed India’s decision to build a corridor from Punjab to Pakistan’s Gurdwara Kartarpur Sahib, the final resting place of Guru Nanak.
Calling the Indian cabinet decision a victory for the peace lobby in both countries, Pakistan Information and Broadcasting Minister Fawad Chaudhry said New Delhi’s move was an endorsement of Islamabad’s proposition on the issue.
“It is a step in the right direction and we hope such steps will encourage voice of reason and tranquility on both sides of the border,” Chaudhry tweeted.
