I won by holding a long but seemingly successful sit-in against the amendment. Earlier, he was also active in the case of the execution of Mumtaz Qadri, the assassin of Punjab Governor Salman Taseer, and from there he turned his religious activities into politics. Khadim Hussain Rizvi, a Barelvi thinker, favored Mumtaz Qadri. He was sacked from the Punjab Endowment Department for speaking out, after which he founded the movement in September 2017 and won the NA-120 Lahore by-election in September of the same year, garnering 7,000 votes. Khadim Hussain Rizvi was also getting support from the Sunni movement in last year's protest sit-in. Former Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi's government had the impression about the Faizabad sit-in that the protesters did not In any case, the Pakistan Army had the support. The distribution of funds by the Rangers to the protesters at the end of the protest is seen in this context. The army has been refusing to support this but now who is behind the sit-ins across the country in the Aasia Bibi controversy and Tehreek-e-Libek. The question of who has the support is being asked again. However, observers believe that in the past, whether they have the backing of someone or not, this time they took to the streets because of their popularity in a certain conservative section of society.

Ejaz Ashrafi said that he did not remember the number of these cases. But he has not been arrested since the movement began. Probably because of his 'street power'. In January 2017, he also staged a rally in Lahore in support of the blasphemy law, which was charged with batons by the police. He was arrested and sent to jail and is still on the Punjab government's Fourth Schedule, which means he has to keep the police informed of his movements. An ISI report says that "Khadim Hussain Rizvi is arrogant in front of his superiors and disrespectful to his subordinates".
It is not clear where Khadim Hussain Rizvi gets the resources for his activities but the Islamabad sit-in. Meanwhile, he announced that unknown persons were giving him millions of rupees. At the end of an article about him on the internet, a man from Australia is asking for his address and bank account to send him money. In addition, a message is circulating on WhatsApp with a phone number saying that if a worker needs any facility during the protest, such as mobile balance, money, or food, send a message to that number.

Can only laugh He has also been harshly addressing journalists and intelligence officials who have come to his gathering. Then there are claims that it may be impossible to put into practice.
He had made a similar statement in Karachi that "if they had an atomic bomb, they would have completely destroyed the Netherlands before the cartooning contest was held." In Lahore, if no action is taken against him on the basis of this, then there is a danger that he will be more 'fearless and fearless'. To deal with this, Bal has once again come to the court of the government. It should be noted that Maulana Khadim Hussain Rizvi has died of a heart attack.
