Based on PTI sources, the long march that will begin on October 28 will end in Islamabad via GT Road, while the long march will continue only during the daytime.
The entire party’s leaders have been informed of possible night-time halts due to the long trek from Lahore could take several days to get to Islamabad.
The task of coordinating the GT Road has been given to the leaders of cities located along this GT Road. Committees at the district and tehsil levels will arrange for participants, and those who are taking part in the long march will also receive transportation amenities and food.
According to the sources, convoys from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Kashmir, Gilgit-Baltistan as well as North Punjab will be told the exact date for their arrival at Islamabad on Friday.
According to Asad Umar, the march will reach Azadi Chowk from Liberty Chowk via Ferozepur Road, Achhra, Mazang, as well as Data Darbar. In the meantime, the march will begin the next day with GT Road until Islamabad. However, on the contrary, PTI party members in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa prepared a plan for the long marches.
