Supporters of PTI and the Islamabad police clashed on the key points of the city when the former tried to reach the city’s D-Chowk for a “peaceful protest.”

To counter the protest, which the government claims is not permitted, the city administration suspended mobile networks and internet services in the twin cities while the police blocked all entry and points to the cities.

Incarcerated former prime minister and PTI founder Imran Khan asked his supporters to gather outside Parliament regardless of obstacles.

“I want you all to reach D-Chowk today for a peaceful protest rally,” he posted on X on Friday, referring to a spot outside parliament. “This war has entered a decisive phase.”

The incumbent government and President Asif Ali Zardari has ruled out the imposition of governor’s rule in KP amid the tiff between the governor and the chief minister.

Many ruling coalition members have slammed the “confrontational politics” of the PTI.

Sources told Aaj News on Friday that President Zardari has asked KP Governor Kundi to stay in the federal capital.

Later while citing sources, PTV News clarified that the news circulating on social media that “the governor’s role is being imposed in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is baseless and fabricated.”
