A disturbance in the law and order situation has emerged in Pakistan as the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Jamiyat Ulama-e-Islam-Fazal (JUI-F) announced a sit-in protest. Followers of both parties have gathered at various main avenues in the twin cities, leading to significant traffic congestion and disruptions in key areas.
The sit-in protest has resulted in traffic jams in areas such as the Red Zone, Koral Interchange, Faizabad Interchange, Murree Road, and Srinagar Highway. Travelers heading towards Islamabad are advised to avoid D-Chowk and the surrounding areas of the Red Zone, as these locations have witnessed a large gathering of protestors. Despite the implementation of Section 144, the authorities have not yet taken substantial action against the ongoing protests.
