Pakistan Awami Tehreek
The Pakistan Awami Tehreek commonly known as PAT (Urdu: پاکستان عوامی تحريک) (Pakistan People's Movement) is a political party in Pakistan, founded by Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri, took part in general elections in 1990 and 2002.
Pakistan Awami Tehreek presented a detailed 186-page manifesto by the name of 'putting people first', which outlined seven priorities:
Moreover, practical course of action was spelled out to revitalize 32 departments of the country.
PAT chief Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri announced the establishment of PAT on 25 May 1989 in a public meeting at Mochi Gate, Lahore.
From 1989 to 1993, Qadri worked as an opposition leader to highlight the government's mistakes, and to propose changes in political, educational, and economical fields. In 1991, PAT and Tehrik-e-Nifas-e-Fiqh-e-Jafria (Moosavi Faction) signed a 'Communique of Unity' to promote social and religious harmony. In another move, PAT, for the first time in the political history of Pakistan, introduced an idea of "working relationship" between the three national political forces, PAT, TNFJ, and Tehreek-e-Istaqlal.
In 1992, Qadri put forward an extensive working plan for interest-free banking in Pakistan, covering both national and international banking; it was met with widespread recognition and approval, and had supporters even among industrial and banking professionals.
PAT fielded candidates throughout the country in the general elections held one year after its establishment. The party failed to win any seats, but received enough votes to demonstrate support and to spur promotion across the country.
The PAT leadership tried to unite religious and political leaders prior to the 1993 elections, to create an alternative vision that could be offered to the nation, but failed to make headway. In view of this sharp political divide, the General Council of PAT concluded that the present electoral system would render progress towards their desired vision for the Pakistan impossible. Consequently, it boycotted the political process and turned to promoting awareness and support among working-class Pakistanis.
