      <title>Rawalpindi to be sealed at 50 points ahead of PTI protest</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330389881/rawalpindi-to-be-sealed-at-50-points-ahead-of-pti-protest</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In preparation for a planned protest by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on November 24, law enforcement agencies are implementing a “virtual siege” of Rawalpindi.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The city will be sealed off at 50 locations to prevent PTI supporters from entering the federal capital.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Authorities have already begun a crackdown on PTI leaders and activists, with over 30 individuals detained.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Police will deploy shipping containers, razor wire, and barbed wire at key points, and additional security personnel, including Elite Force commandos, will be on standby to maintain order and prevent any protests.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While police officials have indicated they prefer to avoid using water cannons and rubber bullets, they are prepared for potential confrontations, especially in Attock district, where tensions are expected to be high.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The police have stated that maintaining peace and protecting citizens’ lives and property are top priorities.&lt;/p&gt;
