GUJRANWALA, Nov 2 (FD): PTI leader Asad Umar shared that the Imran Khan’s “Haqiqi Azadi” march to reach Rawalpindi by November 10 as per new schedule.
“On November 11, caravans from all over Pakistan will reach Islamabad,” he said in a tweet.
The former premier, whose long march started on Friday has reached Gujranwala. On its fifth day, the march still had not moved beyond Gujranwala, falling way behind its schedule.

As per the new schedule shared by the party, the march would start from Gondlawala Chowk today and will end at Gakhar Mandi after covering a distance of 15km.
In the first five days, the march hardly covered 100 kilometers. The PTI plans to stay on the road for the next ten days before reaching the federal capital – its destination.
meanwhile as many as two dozen Islamabad policemen were dismissed from the force on Tuesday over their absence from special duty.
The personnel had been deployed at different spots – some inside the Red Zone –in connection with the long march of PTI.
