Chief Minister Sohail Afridi said the province is being deliberately ignored in key areas, including NFC awards, electricity and gas.

He said the strike will be observed across the province, while emergency services will remain exempt.

Afridi also raised concerns about the treatment of former prime minister Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi, stating they are not being provided treatment under the supervision of personal doctors.

He further said that not allowing Bushra Bibi to meet her family and lawyers is an inhuman and illegal act.

The chief minister appealed to lawyers to participate in the strike, urging those who uphold the constitution and law to support the move.
