In pictures: PTI supporters push towards Islamabad’s D-Chowk​

In what Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder and former premier Imran Khan called a “final call”, party supporters reached D-Chowk in Islamabad on Tuesday after they initiated a large-scale march towards the capital city on November 24, vowing not to return until the release of Khan.

In a bid to foil the PTI’s planned march, the government imposed Section 144 in several districts, banned public gatherings, deployed heavy contingent of police, and sealed the capital city with containers.

However, thousands of PTI supporters flocked to D-Chowk amid reports of intense tear gas shelling, the place they had promised to stage sit-in for the release of Imran Khan as well as against alleged tampering in the February polls.

The tweet caption

 

[Broghil]

What is actual situation?

Channels are showing press conference of govt ministers claiming successful operation.

 

[ghazi52]

Media remains gagged on why they are protesting, it's not only release of leaders but injustice, persecution n no justice in sight.

 

[KingSlayr]

I hope the Americans break the back of this worthless army. Payback will be swift. I only say this because the Americans don’t give a damn about IK but this is pressure they can apply on the Mil establishment indirectly to extract benefits. Same thing they did when they forced India on the border in fall 2001 to ensure Muhajir Musharraf falls in line.

Break their backs!

 

[WatchtowerWarrior4Ever]

Islamabad will be cleared till morning.
Roads shall be opened till the afternoon tomorrow.
Schools will be re opened on Thursday.
Miscreants shall be dealt accordingly.
Over 500 are arrested. Rest are trying to escape still.....
Attock bridge is sealed once again so that those rodents will not find any escape route.
Arrested Afghan nationals will receive some special treatment InshaAllah.
CASE CLOSED.
Better luck next time.
