Someone should take a screenshot of the Radio Pakistan announcement of this. Also, despite the threat of violence, besides D-Chowk and its symbolic value, if the PTI going for the choke points of Islamabad?The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) convoy, led by Bushra Bibi, the wife of Imran Khan, is approaching Islamabad's Zero Point, which has been taken under the control of Pakistan Army soldiers.
Clashes between the police and PTI workers continue in Islamabad, with protesters reaching Zero Point.
Rangers have been deployed at key government buildings, and military troops are stationed at D-Chowk.
The effects of tear gas shelling have reached Aabpara Chowk, prompting businesses in Aabpara Market to shut down. In light of the escalating situation, additional police personnel have been called in from Rawalpindi, with an initial deployment of 1,000 officers to Islamabad.
Authorities have issued stringent directives to security personnel, authorising them to take decisive action against agitators and miscreants, including the use of extreme measures such as shooting rioters on sight, according to the Radio Pakistan website.
Corp commanders could remove the chief and talk to IK to return to their constitutional roles, and respect his party’s mandate of a 2/3 majority, by a re-certification of the election results via the form 45 results. With tensions lowered, the chief and PML-N leaders (outside of the handful of actually elected parliamentarians) could leave for a life in Dubai or where ever.So, what happens if the demands are not met, or NOT met? In both situations, it looks like there will be chaos since Bushra Bibi seems a lot more competent than Gandapur. If this rally fails, it's likely downhill from here for PTI. If this revolution succeeds, what will happen within the internal workings of the Army?
Do or Die for both sides.
Are PTI supporters going to surround Adaila or protest near it?'No turning back without Imran Khan'
As the PTI convoy reached the Punjab boundary, the police started shelling on them at the Attock Bridge, Chach interchange and Ghazi Barotha canal areas.
Later, Gandapur directed the convoy to stop at Ghazi Maqam for a while, urging the workers to get ready, because there was a "battle ahead".
Meanwhile, it was reported that Imran Khan's wife, Bushra Bibi, also addressed the workers and asked them to quickly move ahead in their vehicles instead of walking along the march, stressing they would have to move fast and shouldn't come back without bringing Imran Khan back.
While the K-P saw the largest mobilisation of the participants, the rallies also set out from various parts of Punjab, Sindh, and Balochistan. In Punjab, opposition supporters marched from cities, including Lahore, Rawalpindi, Gujranwala, Sialkot, Mianwali, Kasur, Okara, and Vehari, among others.
Despite heavy police and Rangers' deployment, many PTI workers managed to breach barricades and evade restrictions, in an attempt to reach the capital.
Throughout the day, the PTI workers and LEA officials kept clashing in different parts of Punjab.
As per these experienced bureaucrat, the only way out now will be that AM will ask SS to resign, announce new elections and will then eventually knock down IK just like they did to Sheikh Mujibur Rahman or Benazir Bhutto
Do they care for people or the country ?.Benazir had intoxicated Sindhi followers and Mujib was faraway in Bangladesh. Here Pasthun inside the system and very active. Killing Imran Khan will be massive disaster for next many decades for Pakistani economy and security.
Corp commanders could remove the chief and talk to IK to return to their constitutional roles, and respect his party’s mandate of a 2/3 majority, by a re-certification of the election results via the form 45 results. With tensions lowered, the chief and PML-N leaders (outside of the handful of actually elected parliamentarians) could leave for a life in Dubai or where ever.
IK could then reinstate on of the sacked corp commanders and pick one of them as the new army chief.
Parliament could then come to session, with its new 2/3 plus seats in the hands of PTI to pass legislation that would prevent the kind of political interference by the army, that has held the country back since nearly the founding.
Do or die for the old way of thinking, but doesn’t need to be for any leader if the PTI succeeds.
