‘PTI wants to save democracy, uphold Constitution’: Spokesperson to the CM and Punjab government Musarrat Jamshed has said on the call of Imran Khan, women will come out on roads by not caring for their lives, adding maid servants of Maryam are merely doing propaganda on Toshakhana case.

There is an allegation on Imran Khan for selling one watch while these people have devoured the whole country, Musarrat said at a joint press conference with Finance Minister Mohsin Leghari at DGPR office here on Saturday.

The spokesperson said the PTI has resolved to win real freedom for the country, save democracy and uphold the Constitution.

Political step or long march is only for apprising the masses that the economy of the country has ruined and that is why people have come on roads.
