The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has postponed its protest in Islamabad, which was initially scheduled for Friday after IHC reserved its verdict on PTI plea seeking permission to stage protest in Islamabad.
PTI regional president Aamir Mughal shared the latest updates regarding the change in plans, as the protest had been earlier scheduled on Friday.
Mughal explained that the party had adopted a legal route, applying for permission from the deputy commissioner on July 23. However, after not receiving the necessary approval, the matter was referred to the Islamabad High Court.
“The court has expressed its intention to allow the protest on Monday and reserved the decision,” Mughal stated, emphasizing the party’s respect for the legal process. “A reserved decision has not been pronounced yet, and we respect the court and the law.”
Ealier, the Islamabad High Court on Friday reserved its verdict on the PTI petition seeking permission for a protest in Islamabad as the capital authorities have prohibited the party from staging the protest after the advocate general said the court could order whatever it wanted, but the administration could not allow the protest to be staged.
IHC Justice Saman Rifat presided over the hearing on the petition filed by PTI leader Amir Mughal after the administration’s refusal to allow the party to hold its event on July 26.
