Lahore, March 22, 2025 – The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), led by former Prime Minister Imran Khan, has been denied permission to hold a rally at Minar-i-Pakistan due to security concerns and potential law-and-order issues. The local administration’s decision has drawn strong criticism from PTI leaders, who view it as an attempt to curb their democratic rights.
The rally was part of PTI’s campaign against the current government to mobilize public support. Authorities have suggested alternative venues or stricter security protocols for approval. PTI supporters have condemned the move, with party leaders vowing to challenge it through legal and political means.
