Butt is DJ of All Seasons, Playing This Time For N League
Butt, who gained popularity from PTI sit-ins and played the anthem of Go Nawaz Go, will this time play the anthem of Go Imran Go
WEB DESK: In the Pakistani politics, those who have been changing parties are called Lota and they are often ridiculed but what if a music band or a DJ changes his party? It has been reported that DJ Butt, who gained popularity from PTI sit-ins and played the anthem of Go Nawaz Go, will this time play the anthem of Go Imran Go on behalf of PML-N and will receive praise from the audience.
Asif Nazar Butt better known by his stage name DJ Butt is Pakistani DJ, political activist and businessman from Lahore best known for his work as a disc jockey in the events of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf. He is also owner of a café named DJ Butt Café in Model Town, Lahore. He used to work as a helper at a coffee shop in 1996 where many people encouraged him to become a disc jockey (DJ).
He was introduced to the PTI in 2011 by his friend Captain Hassan Bilal who was assistant of Imran Khan’s brother-in-law. Butt started managing rallies of PTI in 2013. He has composed and created many anthems for PTI from which Go Nawaz Go was the most famous.
Butt was arrested in September 2014 for violation of Section 144 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (“the Amplifier Act”), for a capital administration ban on the use of loudspeakers during a PTI sit-in, in connection with a case registered under Section 188 of the Pakistan Penal Code, entitled ‘Disobedience to Order, Duly Promulgated by Public Servant’.
In April 2015 while working in his café in Lahore, Butt was attacked by eight men armed with weapons. Butt told that the attackers dragged him out of the café and were trying to bundle him into a vehicle when nearby traders came to his rescue.
On 6 June 2015, Butt sued PTI for not paying his dues amounting to Rs. 140 million, out of which he only received Rs. 52 million. Butt said in an interview that the party still owes him Rs. 80 million and he will go to court if his payment is withheld.
He was also served a notice for the recovery of Rs. 17 million tax on the basis of his claim against PTI.
There is a important question comes in the mind that Butt is going to sing the anthems of PML-N this time and chant slogans of Go Imran Go, will have to face the similar kind of cases against him once again. Hold on there is another important question is also coming in mind that whether DJ Butt has re-entered the fray to make money from PTI rival or he is supporting N league only to take revenge from old friends.
