PTI leader Asad Umar talked about his experience of interacting with "thousands of people" during the party's long march redux.

"Saw their amazing spirit of generosity, the sincerity of their affection, hope in their eyes. It is truly tragic that a corrupt elite has exploited them and enriched themselves," he said.

"To realise the dreams of these people we need a country which takes its own decisions and is subservient to none. A country in which all power flows from it's citizens. A country in which individuals are not bigger than institutions and institutions are not bigger than the nation," he said.
