Addressing a press conference in Karachi, along with his fellow ulemas, Mufti Muneeb-ur-Rehman said that they would go on a nationwide wheel jam and shutter down strike on April 19, 2021 (Monday).

On the other hand, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman has also favoured Mufti Muneeb in this matter.
