ISLAMABAD:
The Islamabad Capital Territory Administration (ICTA) on Saturday granted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) permission to stage a public gathering at the parade ground on Sunday (today).
After the Supreme Court had disqualified former prime minister Nawaz Sharif in the Panama Papers case, the PTI, which had campaigned and had petitioned the top court against the premier, had announced plans to hold a large rally to mark the landmark decision.
Unfazed by ouster: Defiant Sharif says disqualified over unclaimed salary
A request was subsequently submitted to the ICTA on Friday evening to hold a rally at Islamabad’s parade ground on Sunday.
