Why Long March took so Long?


Seen as one of the Longest, in fact Slowest Marches in the history of Pakistan, the caravans of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Azadi March Band Wagon finally reached Islamabad after almost one & half days journey.

Imran Khan, like old Lorry Cleaners, took endless stops in all cities, towns, villages and streets to gather "Sawarian" (Passengers) en-route to Islamabad. Khan was even heard chanting slogans of "Mint Maro, Mint Maro" (Reach within a minute, reach within a minute) and "Pindi, Pindi, Abpara, Abpara" to attract passengers who wanted to go to Rawalpindi or Abpara.

However, people didn't show much interest, in fact, the people of Gujranwala were so annoyed, they pelted "Chitar" (Shoes) at Imran Khan's Lorry. Chitar-Therapy proved very fruitful, as Khan started rasing slogans "Double-eh, Dobule-eh" (Move on, Move on), and the Band Wagon increased it's speed so much that it over Sheikh-ul-Islam's Band Wagon, also en-route to Islamabad.
