Opposition rallies will enter the federal capital on March 26 and will gather at the Srinagar Highway at G-9.
A change in the schedule of the opposition long march also led to a delay in the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz's rally from Lahore. As per the new schedule, the caravan will depart from Punjab's capital on March 26 and reach Islamabad on March 28 under the leadership of PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz and leader Hamza Shehbaz.
Ahead of the no-trust motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan, the Pakistan Democratic Movement decided to march towards Islamabad against the rising inflation across the country.
