Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) recent attempt to create unrest and disrupt national stability has been thwarted by the state, preventing its intended sabotage of the upcoming SCO Summit and constitutional reforms.
Over the past 96 hours, PTI and its jailed leader devised a plan to stir chaos, aiming to destabilise Pakistan and disrupt the October 15-16, SCO Summit.
The protest, led by Ali Amin Gandapur, aimed to provoke violent confrontations with law enforcement to create unrest. PTI leaders hoped for casualties that could be exploited to pressure the government and derail constitutional amendments. However, the government's calculated strategy foiled these efforts.
Ali Amin Gandapur, the march's leader, fled back to Peshawar after his failed protest, leaving PTI workers in disarray. Meanwhile, key PTI figures who previously asserted that only Imran Khan would decide the fate of their movement found themselves sidelined, with no negotiations or leverage gained.
The government’s firm response, combined with the apprehension of illegal Afghan participants and the recovery of equipment used to instigate violence, revealed the full extent of PTI’s plan. In the aftermath, many PTI workers face legal consequences, while the government continues its efforts to maintain order.
