Writ of the state

Mumtaz Qadri’s followers breached Islamabad's Red Zone's security, two years after PTI and PAT supporters did so

SIALKOT: The erosion of the state’s writ has continued as the caravan of Mumtaz Qadri’s followers breached the security of the Red Zone in Islamabad, two years after PTI and PAT supporters entered the sensitive area. We have seen it happening twice now. In this entire scenario, the government seems clueless. It also projects a wrong image of Pakistan to the world and its foes.
