 Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) will march from Nasir Bagh to Faisal Chowk on March 23 with or without government permission. Hafiz Sulman Butt, ameer of JI Lahore, had written a letter to Mian Amer Mehmood, Lahore district nazim, seeking permission for the rally on March 23 but the nazim refused due to the imposition of Section 144. However, Mr Butt said on Tuesday that the JI would hold the rally regardless. "We shall inform the administration and are not bound to seek approval from the government," he said. March 23 is a public holiday and there is no chance of traffic disturbance on that day due to the rally, he added. |
