ISLAMABAD: The Federal Capital Police have completed all of the preparations necessary to deal with the PTI long march that will take place over the weekend in the capital city.
The authorities have made the decision to use unorthodox tactics in order to deal with the PTI protests.
According to the reports, the police have been given 567 tear gas weapons and 50,000 ammunition to use in their operations. In addition, police authorities have received 500 rubber bullet guns, 37,300 cartridges, 17 pepper guns, and 11,000 pepper balls. All of these items were turned over to the police.
In addition, the law enforcement forces have been provided with spray paint so that they can identify the demonstrators and arrest them.
Both the Rangers and the troops of the Sindh Police have been placed on high alert in preparation for any potential emergency scenario.
In addition to the Islamabad Police, 5,000 Rangers members will be deployed for the purpose of providing security. Additionally, 500 officers from the Sindh Police will help the Islamabad Police in their duties.
In addition, 4,700 members of the FC have been stationed at various places and locations around the city of Islamabad.
According to the reports, a single shift would consist of three thousand policemen and officials in Islamabad who will do their tasks.
The Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) has given Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) permission to conduct their demonstration in the capital city of Islamabad.
The National Clearance Order (NOC) for the PTI rally in the Federal Capital commencing from the Islamabad highway was issued by the Deputy Commissioner of Islamabad.
The ICT administration would be followed by the PTI as they have mentioned in the statement made by the NOC. Any kind of deviance from the designated rally course will, in the end, result in the NOC being canceled.
The Islamabad freeway and Chak Beli are where the march must begin; however, participants in the rally will be permitted to travel to Koraal and Rawat, according to the city police.
Since section 144 will continue to be enforced in the federal capital despite the fact that the NOC has only been obtained for the Koraal-Rawat route, it is impossible to have protests or processions there.
