Peshawar   -  Leaders of the component parties of Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) have warned the government not to create hurdle in Peshawar meeting of the movement otherwise they may turn violent in that case.

Addressing a news conference after a joint meeting of PDM component parties at Bacha Khan Markaz, ANP provincial general secretary Sardar Hussain Babak said that all arrangements had been finalised for the PDM public rally that would be held on November 22 in the provincial capital.

Babak said that all component parties of PDM were united for a single cause to restore real democracy in the country and oust the ‘selected’ government from power. 

“There are no differences among the central or provincial leadership of the PDM and every political party has its own ideology,” he said and added that central leadership of Pakistan People’s Party, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, Awami National Party, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam and Qaumi Watan Party would participate and address the November 22 rally.

Abdul Jalil Jan, the media coordinator of the PDM in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, said the rally would be held at Dilazak Road, for which district administration of Peshawar had been approached for final approval.
