The PTI, now contesting the polls with individual candidates and alternative symbols due to the loss of its iconic ‘bat’ symbol, has launched an online portal on its website, insaf.pk, and a backup site, pticandidates.com, to provide information about its candidates.
However, attempts to access PTI’s websites in Pakistan were unsuccessful, except through a Virtual Private Network (VPN).
Hello @murtazasolangi @umarsaif and @PTAofficialpk , can you explain why PTI’s websites are blocked in Pakistan?

People are still getting symbol information from Imran Khan’s Facebook page so the question is what purpose is this block serving? https://t.co/JAQ3B3FfGd
The party raised the issue on its official X account, tagging the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) and interim ministers, questioning the reason for the alleged block. The PTA has not responded to queries, and this comes after recent internet outages during PTI’s online events.
