The caretaker government of Punjab province in Pakistan has imposed Section 144 in Lahore for seven days, citing terror threats amid protests and rallies by Imran Khan's party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). According to a notification issued by the caretaker government, Section 144 has been imposed in three areas of Lahore for the next seven days.

 

Ban on street meetings, rallies

Section 144 prohibits all kinds of street meetings, jalsas, public meetings, and gatherings in the areas. The development came after Deputy Commissioner Lahore wrote a letter to the caretaker Punjab government for the imposition of the section, reports ARY News. Significantly, PTI chief Imran Khan announced the Jail Bharo Tehreek program while addressing the people on television.

 

Imran announced the Jail Bharo movement on February 22

As per information 200 PTI workers and six-member groups of MNAs will give their arrests daily from 22 February to 1 March. If the party workers and members are not arrested, they will continue to sit at that place. PTI workers will fill jails on Shahrah-e-Quaid-e-Azam on 22nd February, workers of Peshawar will fill jails from Peshawar on 23rd February, workers of Rawalpindi on 24th February, workers of Multan and Gujranwala on 2nd February.

 

Earlier, Khan had said that we will fill all the jails and the officers of the Shahbaz Sharif government will have no place to hide. Blaming the current coalition government for "political hunting" of his party's leaders and allies, Khan claimed that the police were barging into the houses of PTI workers in Multan to threaten them.
