Protest against 27th Amendment : The recent widespread street protests against the 27th Constitutional Amendment in Pakistan have further escalated political tensions in the country. Hundreds of PTI (Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf) and TTAP (Tehreek Tahaffuz Ayin-e-Pakistan) activists held rallies, chanting slogans against the amendment. They claim the amendment is a conspiracy to exclude the PTI from the electoral process and a way to conceal the government’s corruption and failures.
Alleged mistreatment of Imran Khan’s sisters fuels protests
Another reason for the protests is the alleged mistreatment of Imran Khan’s sisters. PTI activists allege that the Pakistani government is using Form 47 to pressure the judiciary. They say that Imran Khan’s exclusion from politics and the mistreatment of his family are intolerable. They demand that the government conduct an impartial investigation into these incidents.
