Govt Reacts to PTI Protest Section 144 Imposed
Talking to the media in the Federal Capital today, he said the Islamabad High Court, in its orders, has very clearly stated that there is no permission to hold a gathering, rally, march, or sit-in.
Mohsin Naqvi said the government is duty-bound to implement the orders of the Islamabad High Court in letter and spirit.
Responding to a question, the Interior Minister said no application seeking permission for the protest demonstration on Sunday has so far been received. He said action would be taken against the violators of the law and Section 144.
Answering another question, he said those who violate the Islamabad High Court’s orders will be responsible for the consequences.

It is to be noted that incarcerated PTI founder Imran Khan has given a call for countrywide protests on November 24.
In a separate development, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) presented ‘conditions’ to hold negotiations to withdraw its November 24 protest call.
The PTI demanded immediate relief for party founder Imran Khan, the sources said. “In exchange for relief to its founder, the PTI is ready to call off the protest,” they added.
The party asked the government to quash all ‘fabricated’ cases against Imran Khan and his immediate release. “If legal proceedings delay his release, Imran Khan should be transferred to Peshawar Jail,” one of the conditions set by PTI read.
