Lahore (I-Newswire) August 10, 2011 - Jaag Utho (http://www.facebook.com/jaagutho) (Wake Up) is the name of the Facebook campaign that Imran Khan the aspiring cricketer turned politician of Pakistan has launched to initiate a youth activation movement across the country. Pakistan has been in the news for all the wrong reasons i.e. terrorism, corruption and failing economy.

Imran Khan is launching a country wide movement specially targeted to the seventy percent of the population which is under 30 years of age. Since this target segment is savvier on the Facebook rather than face to face, Pakistan Tehrek-e-Insaf (Imran Khan’s Political Party) in order to create awareness in this segment has launched a first of its kind social media strategy.

Jaag Utho (http://www.facebook.com/jaagutho) is an innovative Virtual Rally where people are invited to join and express their solidarity to cleanse the country from corruption and inequity.

This site has attracted huge members due to its very unique appeal to the Virtual Rally and attractive graphics. Many international blogs have claimed this site as being a trend setter for politics in this region.

Jaag Utho (http://www.facebook.com/jaagutho) is an overall movement under which aside from rallies other drives and initiatives like voter registration and volunteering campaigns will follow the Virtual Rally.

An effort by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan to provide a platform to Pakistan's youth which seeks solutions to the problems that the young population faces. Under the banner of Jaag Utho, our manifesto follows;
