He warned that the authorities should be concerned when even the workers start picking up guns. The Pakistan establishment and the government need to take heed. He emphasized that PTI will not be crushed by oppression, but will instead grow stronger. He also stated that the perception that people from province Punjab would not come to Islamabad was wrong, as Punjab had essentially been turned into a prison.
