Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) supremo Maulana Fazlur Rehman claimed on Thursday that the "former army chief Gen (rtd) Qamar Javed Bajwa toppled the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf's (PTI) government."
Speaking on the Samaa TV programme 'Nadeem Malik Live', Rehman said: "Someone should stand up to the establishment and say it is doing wrong".
"The protest will continue until things are settled, as the establishment has nothing to do with politics. As a result of this protest, there will be a revolution," Rehman maintained.

Rehman said, "The state institutions are respectable, but why come into politics?"
"If the establishment thinks that the elections were transparent, then the narrative in line with the May 9 mayhem is buried," Rehman added.
Recalling the no-confidence motion against the PTI founder, Rehman said: "The PPP was moving the no-confidence motion against the PTI. Gen Bajwa and Faiz Hameed were in touch with us at the time of no-confidence motion."
"Gen Bajwa, Faiz Hameed asked all parties to do this [bringing vote of no-confidence motion],” he asserted.
Speaking about talks with the PTI, Rehman said: "There is a difference of mind with the PTI that can be resolved."
"PML-N has announced to take the government with 66 seats to save the country. The present parliament has no future, as the decisions and policies in the parliament will come from somewhere else," Rehman said.
