geo.tv

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party confirmed it will proceed with a protest on November 24 for the release of its founder, Imran Khan. This decision follows Khan's call for nationwide demonstrations against alleged election rigging and the detention of party workers. A meeting of PTI leaders in Peshawar reaffirmed the protest date, despite ongoing negotiations with the government. The government has not agreed to Khan's demand for his release as a condition to cancel the march. In response to the planned protest, authorities in Punjab have deployed Rangers in key districts and imposed Section 144, limiting gatherings. Islamabad has also banned large gatherings and increased police presence to manage potential disruptions.
