The opposition alliance Tehreek-i-Tahafuz-Ayin-i-Pakistan (TTAP) has announced it will fully participate in the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) protest scheduled for October 4. This decision comes after the original protest, planned for September 27, was postponed due to unspecified administrative and logistical issues. The PTI, which is a member of the opposition alliance, rescheduled the demonstration to coincide with a nationwide protest aimed at demanding the release of former Prime Minister and PTI founder Imran Khan.
The TTAP leadership, while not entirely agreeing with the postponement, has decided to abide by the new date. A TTAP spokesperson stated that the PTI is part of the opposition alliance and that the call for the September 27 protest was unanimously declared as a joint call. The spokesperson also mentioned that detailed consultations were held with Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi and PTI leadership regarding protests in Sindh and Balochistan.
The TTAP emphasized that the date of September 27 is crucial for Pakistan’s democratic future, the supremacy of the Constitution, and the protection of political rights.
