Maryam Nawaz urges supporters to answer call for Islamabad march to 'topple government'
106
Maryam Nawaz Sharif, a vice president of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) party, has appealed to supporters to join her when the party calls on them to march to Islamabad.
On Sunday, during her latest mass contact campaign — a 'Free Nawaz Sharif' rally in Khushab — the daughter of incarcerated former premier Nawaz Sharif called on supporters to "heed the call by their party to march to Islamabad for the final shove to topple the government".
"To [drive the final nail in the coffin] against this fake government, if your party Muslim League Noon calls on you to march on Islamabad, will you accompany me there?" she asked crowds gathered in a village off the Lillah interchange who gave her a rousing reception during her stop there.
The PML-N leader also spoke on the plight faced by the citizens of Indian-occupied Kashmir and Azad Jammu & Kashmir and said that "they are not alone as Pakistan stands with them".
"When Kashmiris are wounded, it is Pakistan that feels the pain. When unarmed Kashmiris bleed, it is the blood that runs through Pakistan's veins that is shed," she said.
She also made stops in the cities of Mangwal and Katha while enroute to Khushab.
Maryam had left her Jati Umra residence late Sunday afternoon amid fervent chants by party workers in her support.
She has been at the forefront of PML-N's allegations against judge Arshad Malik, who convicted Nawaz Sharif in the Al Azizia reference last year.
In mid-July, the PML-N leader had announced that she would be leading protest rallies across the country and asked people who wish "to live in a free, democratic and just Pakistan" to join in.

From day one, the opposition's motive has been to topple the government at every and any cost to Pakistan. They have done no constructive work at all. Those charged with billions of dollars worth of corruption are not going to be spared even if the government is toppled. As a friendly advice, take a plea, pay back the looted money and leave Pakistan for good. That will be best for you and best for Pakistan.

Its only Pakistan where opposition is so responsible, where if we look at India, even at the situation where war is at their door step, their opposition left no chance, but still we call our politicians traitors where they show the retrain most compare to what is happening in Russia or China and the prime example France, where people first say no to tax and now they are chanting revolution.

Protests are a good to oppose the bad government policies and to demand justice. However, toppling government by protests is not the good way in Indian subcontinent where there is relatively better maturity of democratic rule. At the most, protests can ask for new election based on overall bad government.
