ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) leader Khurram Nawaz Gandapur has made startling revelations regarding 2014 Islamabad sit-ins.

In a TV programme, Khurram Nawaz Gandapur disclosed that 'London Plan' was behind the 2014 sit-ins, adding that PTI Chairman Imran Khan, PML-Q leaders Chaudhry Pervez Elahi and Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain called on PAT Chief Tahir-ul-Qadri in London.

The PAT leader further revealed that the meeting decided to topple to the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz government.

The protesters were demanding the then prime minister Nawaz Sharif to tender resignation.

The sit-ins were ended after militant attack at Army Public School Peshawar to show solidarity with the victims.
