The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party plans to hold a protest in Islamabad on November 24, despite government threats aimed at deterring participation. PTI leader Sheikh Waqqas Akram stated that preparations will continue regardless of any negotiations. Akram accused the government of intimidating students and citizens to prevent them from joining the protest. He emphasized that party members must mobilize significant crowds or risk losing their positions within PTI. In related news, Punjab Information Minister Azma Bokhari claimed that Bushra Bibi, Imran Khan's wife, is no longer apolitical after a leaked audio suggested she was directing party lawmakers regarding the protest. Bokhari criticized Khan for hypocrisy regarding his stance on dynastic politics.
