BNP chief Sardar Akhtar Mengal, in a statement on social media, criticized the government’s actions, stating that senior PTI members traveling to join the protest were prevented from reaching the site. In response, additional trenches were dug, more containers were placed, and security forces were further reinforced.
He remarked, “The more the government tries to clean its stains, the more tainted it becomes.”
Meanwhile, BNP’s protest gathering continues near the Chiltan Mountains, where demonstrators are demanding the release of BYC leader Dr. Mahrang Baloch and others. Negotiations with the government took place yesterday but failed to yield results. Additionally, security forces have blocked all access routes to the protest site.
