Federal government made our protest successful by blocking the whole country, says CM Gandapur
Ali Amin Gandapur, the chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP),
blasted the federal and Punjab governments on Friday for blocking roads and enforcing Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) in advance of the PTI’s “do-or-die” demonstration.
His comments followed the announcement by a Motorway Police spokeswoman that five motorways,
including M-I and M-II, would be closed to traffic starting at 8 p.m. tonight in order to undergo repairs.
“The imposition of Section 144 and the closure of hotels in Punjab proves ‘Un ki kanpen tang rahi hain’ their legs are shivering.” CM Gandapur remarked in response to the stringent measures taken to address
the PTI’s “final call” for nationwide protests scheduled for November 24.
It is important to note that public meetings are prohibited in Rawalpindi until November 26 and in Islamabad for two more months. Similar Section 144 restrictions were issued today in Punjab for a period of three days beginning on Saturday. Furthermore, Pakistan Rangers Punjab’s services were requested by the provincial home department in three districts: Rawalpindi, Attock, and Jhelum.
He made fun of the ruling PML-N by saying that the administrations in Punjab and the Centre had closed the highways and motorways that led to Islamabad in “bafflement.” The PTI firebrand leader declared, “We are in the preparation stage,” adding that the government’s nationwide blockade of the demonstration made it successful.
They would have a quiet “do-or-die,” according to the chief minister.
He charged that by closing the nation, the federal movement was causing issues for the general populace.
“The government was thrown into chaos by the PTI founder’s protest call.” Prior to the widespread demonstration, the chief minister said that a prisoner forced the rulers to dance to his music.
“They [PTI] gave a missed call,” said Rana Sanaullah, adviser to the prime minister on political and public affairs, in response to the PTI’s protest call. They will not succeed in their protest. “How will they bring people [to the streets]?” he questioned, challenging the PTI to reserve five buses from any area in Punjab.
PTI founder Imran Khan, who has been imprisoned since August of last year, issued a “final call” for a statewide demonstration last week in protest of the 26th Amendment’s ratification
the imprisonment of party employees and the alleged election rigging on February 8. On the approaching Sunday, he urged his followers to march to Islamabad.
