He said that the people affected by poverty and inflation are disturbed by the politics of rallies while it is surprising that the government has also started holding rallies as opposed to the opposition. Political chaos could benefit Pakistan’s internal and external enemies.
The PML-Q chief said that both the parties should not show the way of provocative politics to the workers while for the sake of democracy they should participate in voting without making defeat and victory an issue of ego.
He said that PML-Q has always pursued politics of national interest and those who call us small party have forgotten that we have made big decisions. Despite opposition from others, we have always preferred prudence and conciliation, he added.

Addressing the Pakistan Overseas Conference, Asad Umar said that in the 2018 elections, PTI got the highest number of votes in urban areas of Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Sindh. The party also got the highest votes in Gilgit-Baltistan.
He said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) is a party of all Pakistanis from Khyber to Karachi across the country while PML-Q is the party of some districts of Punjab, PML-N is the party of GT Road and PPP is the party of Sindh.
He termed Imran Khan as a need of Pakistan and said that after Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Liaquat Ali Khan, all the institutions were working together and would thwart the no-confidence motion of the opposition.
The federal minister said that India has been trying to put pressure on Pakistan and we must unite to keep the country strong. The country is facing internal challenges, he said adding that Pakistanis have to face difficult situations. The country needs to be united for success, he added.
