Pakistani court questions petitions against PTI protest; JI announces Islamabad march

The Islamabad High Court questioned the basis of a plea against a PTI protest, while Jamaat-i-Islami announced a march against a petroleum levy.

The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Advocate General has questioned the maintainability of a petition filed in the Islamabad High Court concerning a PTI protest. During proceedings, the Chief Justice of the Islamabad High Court admonished the advocate general for justifying the party's actions, questioning the perceived weakness of the judiciary.

Separately, the Jamaat-i-Islami chief announced a march towards Islamabad to protest a petroleum levy. These events reflect ongoing political tensions and public dissent regarding government policies and the role of the judiciary in addressing such grievances within Pakistan's political landscape.
