“Section 144 Imposed in Islamabad Ahead of PTI’s November 24 Power Show”

In a bid to prevent potential unrest and maintain law and order, the Islamabad administration has imposed Section 144 ahead of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) planned power show on November 24. The move restricts public gatherings and protests in the capital city, with authorities taking precautionary measures to avoid disruptions and ensure security during the planned demonstration.

The PTI, led by former Prime Minister Imran Khan, has called for a massive protest to voice opposition to the current government’s policies. The party is mobilizing supporters to converge on Islamabad for what is expected to be a large-scale rally.

The imposition of Section 144, which bans assemblies of more than four people and other public gatherings, is seen as a preemptive measure to avoid clashes between PTI supporters and law enforcement. The decision has sparked debate, with critics accusing the government of using the law to stifle political opposition and limit citizens’ right to protest.

Authorities are on high alert as the protest day approaches, with both the police and security agencies closely monitoring PTI’s movements. The government has promised to ensure the safety of participants while maintaining public order. The situation remains tense, with PTI leaders urging supporters to peacefully express their demands for political reform.
