LAHORE: For three days, the Punjab government has enforced Section 144, which prohibits any public meetings, demonstrations, rallies, processions, and sit-ins.
The limits will be in place from Saturday, November 23, to Monday, November 25, per a notification sent out on Friday.
Citing worries about public order and security, the Cabinet Committee recommended that Section 144 be implemented.
As the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) prepares for its demonstration on November 24, the action is intended to avoid any disruption.
A notification released on Friday stated that the Cabinet Committee on Law and Order’s recommendation served as the basis for the decision.
