According to sources, the party chairman will be protected by more than 50 special commandos from Gilgit-Baltistan (G-B) and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P), with no unauthorized person allowed near Imran Khan.
Lahore police has decided to reserve over 1,500 officers for the PTI long march on November 26. To ensure the smooth flow of the caravans, security has been tightened at the city’s entry and exit points.
The task has been assigned to four senior superintendents of police (SSPs), 20 station house officers (SHOs), and 1400 constables.
According to sources, the security contingent will include members of the elite force, Punjab constabulary, more than 700 traffic wardens, and personnel from other districts. Security will be overseen by RPO Rawalpindi.
On Saturday, ousted Prime Minister Imran Khan stated that the PTI will resign from all assemblies and that the date for resignations will be announced later after consultations with his party leaders. Khan told supporters at the PTI’s long march in Rawalpindi that his party would no longer be a part of the current parliamentary system.
Without naming anyone, Khan stated that history would remember the man who amassed vast fortunes while trampling on people’s fundamental rights. He stated that his life was in danger, but that he would not flee; he would live and die in Pakistan.
The PTI chief claimed that everyone who called the US cypher fake was part of the regime change plot. Responding to outgoing Army Chief General Bajwa’s statement that Khan created a false narrative and was now attempting to destroy it, Khan asked, without naming Gen Bajwa, why the National Security Council asked the government to send the US a demarche over the cypher if it was false.
