ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) sought permission from the Deputy Commissioner of Islamabad to hold a peaceful public gathering in front of the National Press Club (NPC) in Islamabad to express solidarity with the war-ravaged and besieged Palestinians on October 13 (Friday).
In this regard, the PTI General Secretary Islamabad Region Tanveer Qazi filed an application with the district administration seeking a no-objection certificate (NOC) to organize a peaceful gathering in the federal capital to show support for the embattled Palestinian brothers.
The application reads: “I want to intimate that PTI has decided to organize a peaceful public gathering to show solidarity and support with the people of Palestine on October 13.”
It was said that the peaceful public gathering will be held in front of the NPC.
A large number of general public including women are expected to participate in the scheduled peaceful gathering against Israeli aggression to express support and solidarity with Palestine, he added.
“Therefore, I request you to grant NOC and also undertake necessary measures in terms of provision of venue, specialized security along with other related required steps,” PTI General Secretary demanded.
It is worth-mentioning here that the PTI Core Committee in its meeting on Monday decided to mark the Friday as a ‘Palestine Solidarity Day’ across the Country so as to highlight the state terrorism and atrocities unleashed by the occupying Israeli brutal forces on the innocent and oppressed people of Palestine before the world.
