ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) political committee has announced a nationwide protest scheduled for Friday, expressing strong opposition to recent constitutional amendments.
During a meeting chaired by Barrister Gohar, the committee decided to take a stand against these amendments and the treatment of their founding chairman, Imran Khan. The statement issued by the committee calls for peaceful protests outside district headquarters after Friday prayers, urging all regional and local organizations to participate.
The committee emphasized that the government’s efforts to alter the constitution will not be tolerated and encouraged all supporters of constitutional supremacy to join the protests.
