PTI Chairman Imran Khan on Monday said that if the Supreme Court did not provide his party protection for the next long march, he would opt for a different strategy wherein they would be prepared to deal with the situation. Addressing a lawyers' convention, the former prime minister said: "The PTI will make a plan for dealing with the obstacles. He termed the long march “jihad”, saying that he would not accept the imported government at any cost. Imran asked the apex court to give a ruling providing an explanation why obstacles were placed to stop the PTI from holding the long march. In a comment on the audio clip, PM Shehbaz stated that the alleged conversation between Zardari and Malik Riaz exposed Imran Khan's "hypocrisy and double standards".
