      <title>PTI leaders in Kot Lakhpat jail call for protest pause during Ramazan</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330452799/pti-leaders-in-kot-lakhpat-jail-call-for-protest-pause-during-ramazan</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Central leaders of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) imprisoned in Kot Lakhpat Jail, Lahore, have requested on Friday that all protest activities be postponed during the holy month of Ramazan.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A joint letter, reportedly sent to the media by senior jailed PTI leaders including Shah Mahmood Qureshi, Yasmin Rashid, Ejaz Chaudhry, Omer Sarfraz Cheema, and Mian Mehmood-ur-Rasheed, emphasised the sanctity of Ramazan and called for a temporary halt to protests.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The letter condemned recent remarks by President Asif Ali Zardari about PTI founder Imran Khan, noting that Khan is serving his sentence under challenging conditions with dignity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It demanded that the government refrain from politicising his health and ensure that all treatment decisions involve his sisters and personal doctors.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The leaders further urged the PTI to focus on parliamentary work and strengthen organisational structures.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Party officials at all levels have been instructed to revitalise the party’s grassroots network and prepare for upcoming local body elections nationwide.&lt;/p&gt;
