In a recorded video message, Imran warned that inflation would soar even higher in days to come if the nation "kept sitting idly". "I am inviting the entire nation for a peaceful protest against inflation. I invite trade unions, professionals, doctors, engineers, clerks, and government workers to take to the streets," appealed the ex-PM. Imran said the nation remembers the narrative of the incumbent government leaders when they were in the opposition and used to critique inflation. The former premier warned that a further hike in diesel prices would wreak an "economic havoc" in the country.
