  "account": "Jamaat-i-Islami (JI) chief Hafiz Naeemur Rehman announced on Thursday that the party had postponed its planned long march to Islamabad by a day. The final decision would be made by the central leadership on Friday, which will be announced in a public gathering in Gujranwala. Rehman addressed participants at the JI sit-in outside the Punjab Assembly, who had been protesting for 26 days. He stated that the government had been given ample time to respond to their demands and that there would be no further postponement. Rehman warned that a countrywide march and a movement to remove the government could ensue if relief was not provided. He announced that JI leaders from across the country would convene in Mansoora at 3pm on Friday to determine the long march date.",
