ISLAMABAD: After Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) decision to postpone its rally in Lahore, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Senior Vice-President and Chief Organizer Maryam Nawaz on Sunday shared the difference between a “leader and a jackal,” calling out Imran Khan for his “coward behaviour”.
On her official Twitter handle, Maryam Nawaz said those who cancel movements and prefer to hide inside their houses due to the fear of the police are called jackals.
“While one who leads from the front, breaks all obstacles created by former president Pervez Musharraf and restores judiciary before reaching Gujranwala is a sher-dil leader called Nawaz Sharif,” she wrote.
پولیس کے ڈر سے “تحریکیں”کینسل کرنے والے،خوف سے گھر میں دبک جانے والے کو گیدڑ کہتے ہیں اور جو آمر مشرف کی کھڑی کی ہر رکاوٹ توڑ کر، سامنے سے لیڈ کرتا ہے اور اللّہ کے کرم سے گوجرانوالہ پہنچنے سے پہلے عدلیہ بحال کروا دیتا ہے اس شیر دل لیڈر کو نواز شریف کہتے ہیں! #گیدڑ_پھر_چھپ_گیا pic.twitter.com/kPGZ8CekzS

She compared Imran Khan with Nawaz Sharif, who crossed all obstacles put up by then military dictator late general (retd) Pervez Musharraf to stop Nawaz Sharif from leading a rally taken out to restore deposed judges.

She tweeted, “Those who cancel ’movements due to fear of the police, those who stay at home because of fear are called jackals. Those who led from the front after removing every hurdle put up dictator Musharraf and restored the judiciary by Allah’s grace before reaching Gujranwala. This lion-hearted leader is called Nawaz Sharif.”

The PML-N’s chief party organizer shared a video montage of the PML-N supremo Nawaz’s address delivered in 2007 and PTI leader Hammad Azhar today’s presser, juxtaposing her father and the PTI chief who was removed from power via a no-confidence motion in April last year.
Earlier today, Imran Khan called off his party’s election rally in Lahore after the Punjab caretaker government imposed Section 144 (ban on public gatherings) in the provincial capital.
Despite Zaman Park being sealed, people of Lahore are already out in huge numbers . However, I cannot allow any injuries to my workers, the general public or my police just so these fascists can register more FIRs against us and find a pretext to run away from elections. pic.twitter.com/9aVellESNh
