"Nawaz Sharif, I challenge you, when you come back, I will beat you in your own constituency," said Imran in his first speech of the day.
He also warned the former three-time premier that when he returns to Pakistan, "we will take you to Adiala jail from the airport".
Imran also took aim at former president Asif Ali Zardari and said he should "get ready" for his arrival in Sindh - the traditional bastion of the PPP.
Adding that the people of Sindh "need freedom the most", Imran warned Zardari that he is "coming after" him in Sindh.
The PTI chairperson reiterated that the time of "true freedom" had arrived and told the march participants that "we will attain it through justice and will fight for the supremacy of law and justice".
"This system cannot continue and we will have to change it," Imran told the march participants. "When it is asked who will save Pakistan, the answer is not Imran Khan. It will be you who will save Pakistan and set it free," he told the people.
Addressing the media, PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry criticised the government for increased security measures in the federal capital and claimed the government had deployed at least 30,000 security personnel and released a large sum of funds to deal with the party's march.
He said the government was not "dealing with an enemy nation and they are your people". Fawad also announced a new schedule for the march.
The PTI leader said after spending the night in Gujranwala, the march will resume from Pindi Bypass on November 2.
In Gujrat, Punjab Chief Minister Pervez Elahi and his son Moonis Elahi will welcome the participants of the march, said Fawad.
On November 4, the march aims to arrive in Lala Musa and the initial plan to reach Islamabad by Sunday will not be possible, said the PTI leader, adding that the march will no longer be able to travel through Sialkot.
The PTI leader asked supporters from Sialkot to join the march en route instead as “going to Sialkot would extend the march by 15 days”.
