ISLAMABAD, Nov 03 (APP): The Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) has asked the Pakistan Tehreek-e- Insaaf (PTI) to submit an undertaking in case of any violation during the long march in federal capital.
As per official documents, the ICT has asked for a signed undertaking from the PTI Chairman Imran Khan Niazi following scheduled PTI’s long march.
The ICT administration also asked Pakistan Tehreek Insaaf (PTI) to submit 39 points undertaking signed by its chairman Imran Khan Niazi that they would be liable for any of the violation during the long march/sit-in in Islamabad.
According to undertaking, the permission would be valid for one day (24 hours) from November 4 to 5. It will be the responsibility of organizer (PTI) to ensure dispersal before 12pm on November 5.
The undertaking said that Section 144 is imposed on gathering of persons in Islamabad including Red Zone and the permission granted would be in exception (one time only) near T-Chowk/Rawat on main G.T. Road and is currently vacant.
