Imran Khan to resume March on Tuesday from where he was shot

Imran Khan, a former Pakistani prime minister, was shot at a political event last week in Wazirabad, Punjab province. Imran Khan has declared that his long march toward Islamabad will begin on Tuesday at the same location in the city where he was attacked.

"We have decided that our march will resume on Tuesday from the same [point] in Wazirabad where I and 11 others were shot, and where Moazzam was martyred," Khan was quoted as saying by Dawn, during a press conference in Lahore.

"I will address the march from here (in Lahore), and our march, within the next 10 to 14 days, depending on the speed, will reach Rawalpindi," Imran said in the presser which was broadcasted from his social media accounts of PTI.

The leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) declared that he would join the march and take control of it once it reached Rawalpindi, ANI reported.

Imran Khan was wounded by bullets in his legs on Thursday while participating in a long march in Wazirabad. He was taken to a hospital for treatment after suffering injuries to his leg.

The PTI head claimed that he was aware that an attempt was being made to kill him well before the alleged assassination. "A day before going to the rally, I knew that assassination was being planned against me either in Wazirabad or Gujrat," Khan said in his first address, since the "assassination" attempt on him.

The country's elite was forewarned on Friday by a former prime minister of Pakistan that political change is imminent, whether it occurs peacefully or violently, as in the 1970s Iranian revolution and the massive rallies in Sri Lanka.

There are only two options left for the Pakistani populace, according to Imran Khan: a peaceful or a bloody revolution. "There is no third way out. I have seen the country wake up," he added.

"Now decide if we can bring change in a peaceful way through the ballot box or through chaos like the one witnessed in Iran and Sri Lanka," he said after outlining the series of events in a televised address while still a patient at a Lahore hospital.

A vote of confidence forced the 70-year-old former cricketer-turned-politician from office in April of this year. He said that his government would have lost the no-trust action.

The top Pakistani media regulator on Saturday banned all TV channels from airing and broadcasting Imran Khan's speeches and press conferences, which came a day after Khan made multiple accusations against the Pakistani establishment and the current government.

The ban was, however, revoked, according to Pakistani media.
