Section 144 imposed in Islamabad, Punjab, Balochistan as PTI gears up for rally in KP’s Swabi
Dawn.com
February 8, 2025
PTI convoys set out to gather in Swabi to mark "black day" a year after general elections.
A ban on all gatherings was imposed across Punjab, Balochistan, and Islamabad as the PTI geared up for a rally on Saturday in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Swabi district to mark a year since the Feb 8, 2024 general elections.
The PTI is marking February 8 (today) as a “black day” on the first anniversary of last year’s elections, the results of which were marred by debates on inconsistencies.
While the party had also approached the Lahore deputy commissioner and later the Lahore High Court (LHC) for permission to hold a power show at the city’s Minar-i-Pakistan, the court had denied its request. Nevertheless, PTI’s Punjab chief organiser, Aliya Hamza Malik, has instructed party leaders to hold protest demonstrations.
According to state-run Radio Pakistan, Section 144 has been imposed “in Islamabad, Punjab and Balochistan”.
Section 144 is a legal provision of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) that empowers district administrations to prohibit an assembly of four or more people in an area for a limited period.
“According to the notification, all gatherings, processions, rallies and sit-ins have been prohibited for maintenance of law and order and protection of lives and properties of the people,” Radio Pakistan reported.
It, however, did not specify the reason or the duration for which the ban has been imposed.
PTI caravans from various cities of KP have set out for Swabi, with senior PTI leader Taimur Saleem Khan Jhagra among them. In a post on X, he said: “I have two demands: release of Imran, [and] reparations for the injustice done to the public mandate.”
The former KP minister asserted that he was neither interested in a designation nor any role, adding that he would not be a party to a politician who “plays both sides”.

Section 144 in Punjab
A day ago, the Punjab government issued a notification imposing Section 144 across the province.
The notification said it had been reported that a political party had “announced protests/demonstrations across Punjab on Feb 8 and there is an apprehension that miscreants/mischief-mongers can take advantage of the said protest to carry out subversive/anti-state activities to fulfil their nefarious designs”.
The notification also stated that the Provincial Intelligence Committee, in its Feb 3 meeting, in the backdrop of the present wave of incidents of terrorism, had recommended imposing restrictions on all kinds of political assemblies, sit-ins, rallies and demonstrations to ensure the security of the people and installations/buildings.
In Islamabad, the last time Section 144 was in place was till January 19 at least, after an already existing ban had been extended for another two months on November 18 ahead of the PTI’s “Final Call” protest.
Similarly, a ban on protests was imposed in Punjab at the same time, which had been extended till Nov 28, 2024 at least.
In Balochistan, Section 144 was recently in effect during a gathering organised by the Baloch Yekjehti Committee (BYC) in Chaghi district’s Dalbandin. The ban had previously been imposed on December 30 as well.

I use to support Imran Khan and obviously was very upset about the Corrupt Generals of Pakistan disposing his government. THings were very murky initially and I was not sure what was going on and why these Generals would do this.
But with time I think I know what is going on. It all started a few months ago when all of a sudden US puppet and Asset Zalmay Khalilzad started asking for Imran's release. It did not make sense why a US asset would actually say this when the impression being spread was the it was the US who had Imran imprisioned.
Unless of course where was something else going on. The US regime change in Bangladesh, a Jew becoming the President of Mexico, A jew becoming the President of Argentina, regime change in Syria, pressure on Canada, pressure on Greenland, US regime change operations in Indonesia, SOuth East Asia and so forth made me think outside the box.
The fact is that Mr Imran Khan was suppose to be the face of Colour Revolution in Pakistan. Yes he was !! All this imprisionment drama. etc was an elaborate Hoax. But obviously, The Mafia Generals of Pakistan had other ideas. They do not want to hand over their golden goose Pakistan to US. And that is why close associates of Mr Khan turned against him once they knew the truth. That is why the Generals are still doing what they are doing and risking it all knowing perfecting well that they fell for an elaborate US trick and now they are stuffed. Even their own people HATE them.
US wants to secure it position by inciting colour revolutions in many countries because there is a war major coming with China and Russia. Pakistan with major CPEC project is a big target. US is targetting Indonesia, Thailand and manhy other countries.
So there you go - I said it. This post might upset a few but I am just trying to be logical.

There is no regime change in Indonesia done by USA
Just use logic, Soekarno is replaced, then Soeharto took the power due to this reasons :
1. Soekarno allow Indonesian Comnunist Party to form troops with strength at 1 million soldiers. China will equipp with weapons. It is well documented. See Angkatan ke 5 ( fifth forcest Indonesian Communist)
2. In order to avoid civil war, Indonesian army has to do the coup.
3. Communist power is the enemy of Muslim power in Indonesia while Indonesia is 87 % Muslim. It is very natural for such condition that Communist at the right momentum will be destroyed.
4. Indonesian Armed force doesnt agree with Soekarno attemp to invade Malaya ( Malaysia and Singapore ) that make Indonesia needs to fight many countries including Britain, and Australia.
5. Of course USA is happy with the change, but Allah and internal power who did that.

The first coup is failed, Communist sniffed the plan, then they made mistake with killing 6 or 9 Indonesian high rank Armed Force ( from Army ) generals who planned the coup.
Allah save General AH Nasution (Indonesian Armed Force General) but his daughter is killed by Communist.
This is a mistake to kill those Army generals and Armed Force General little daughter ( around 5 years old at that time), so you see the revenge is harsh, Soekarno is also then fall.
Why Soeharto that get the power, not Nasution ? Soeharto is Kostrad commander, the largest and most powerful troops within Army. Other Army forces like Kopassus(special force), Siliwangi troops in West Java also part of the anti communist troops that supported Soeharto move.
It is like what happened in Syria today when the strongest rebel troops who initiate the quick war become Syria ruler now.

Yes thankfully no regime change happened in Indonesia because the plan was exposed. This plan was led by the National Endowment for Democracy (NED).

Sohail Afridi raised a very important question at today’s rally—one that aligns with all principles of logic, philosophy, and political science. This question has never been asked before, at least in Pakistan’s history, nor has it crossed anyone’s mind. It has shifted many people’s perspectives, and in the coming days, it is set to open a new chapter in public awareness.
You must be wondering what question Sohail Afridi asked that is about to change the course of history. His question was:
“Asim Munir, if you did not rig the elections on February 8, then was it your father who did?”
Clearly, in Pakistan, the power and authority to rig elections lie with the military. So, if Asim Munir did not orchestrate the rigging, then surely one of his “fathers” must have done it.
In the previous rally, questions were raised about Asim Munir’s lineage through urine tests. This time, questions were raised about his birth and his father.

Imran Khan played a pivotal role in facilitating the withdrawal of American soldiers from Afghanistan, as he was actively involved in the negotiations at the time. This is why figures like Zalmay Khalilzad are now speaking in his favor—it has nothing to do with a so-called “Color Revolution.”
Let’s talk about Trump. He initiated the withdrawal process, and the American establishment punished him for it. However, due to the legal and political framework in the US, Trump was able to stage a political comeback. In contrast, Imran Khan is being targeted by the American establishment because, in their view, his role in Afghanistan was a “sin.”
Now, let’s turn to India. They seek to punish Imran Khan due to his assertive policy on Kashmir. Simultaneously, Trump is unlikely to support Imran Khan because of his strong pro-Palestine stance, which directly contradicts US foreign policy interests in the region.
And let’s not overlook the Arab world. They are punishing Imran Khan because he pressured them three times to convene an Islamic conference on Kashmir, which they were reluctant to do. Additionally, his desire to attend the Kuala Lumpur Summit challenged Saudi and Emirati dominance over the Muslim world. This defiance angered the Gulf powers, turning them against him.
Imran Khan has disrupted multiple international establishments, and Asim Munir is merely another instrument for the global establishment’s agenda.
Furthermore, the former DG ISI is in custody because he was in charge of Pakistan’s intelligence agency during a time when the Americans sought to punish him. You cannot hold a Pakistani soldier accountable in this manner, yet a former ISI chief is detained. This is another attempt to punish Imran Khan indirectly.
Even the Pakistani military establishment dislikes the American withdrawal from Afghanistan because it cut off a significant source of funding for them. They are punishing Imran Khan for this as well, as they were forced to comply with the withdrawal at the time due to international pressure. Trump’s decision to halt the USAID program also disrupted the flow of funds to figures like Sharif, Zardari, and the Pakistani military establishment. If the details of these financial dealings were ever disclosed, it would reveal a massive scandal, causing a disaster not only for Pakistan but for the world as well. The scale of the money involved is staggering.
So, stop spreading lies and manipulating the facts. Acknowledge the truth and correct the mistakes.
