Opposition Leader in Senate Shibli Faraz would also participate in the strike. The strike will be held from 3pm to 7pm.
The issue of receiving lawsuit threats against MNAs for remaining loyal to PTI will also be raised. The demand for release of Imran Khan will also be put forward.
In case the demands are not met, the hunger strike will be expanded.
