ISLAMABAD, November 29,2024: A resolution calling for a ban on the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party has been submitted to the Punjab Assembly Secretariat by Rana Muhammad Fayyaz, a leader of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Member of the Provincial Assembly (MPA).
The resolution accuses PTI of being a “disruptive group” operating under the guise of a political party and demands stringent action against those responsible for the violent events on November 24.
The resolution claims that PTI has played a significant role in destabilizing the country, alleging that the party promotes an anarchist agenda.

This move follows a similar resolution passed in the Balochistan Assembly on Thursday, also initiated by the PML-N.
The Balochistan resolution accuses PTI of damaging key institutions, including the judiciary, media, and economy, and calls for federal intervention to impose a ban on the party and hold its leadership accountable for their alleged actions.
