Mohsin Naqvi warns stern action if PTI crosses ‘red line’

PTI protest

ISLAMABAD: Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi warned that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) will not be allowed to hold protest at D-Chowk and said that the government will be forced to take stern action if the party attempts to cross the ‘red line’, ARY News reported.

Speaking to newsmen in Islamabad, the interior minister said that the Islamabad High Court had directed the government to engage in talks with the PTI, adding that the party has been allowed to hold protest in the Sangjani area.

“The government will not permit the PTI to cross the designated red line,” he added.

He warned that if the PTI attempts to cross the red line, the government will be forced to take stern action including imposing curfew. Mohsin Naqvi urged the PTI leadership to refrain from pushing the situation to a point where the government is compelled to take drastic measures.

In his presser earlier, Interior Minister Mohsin Nawabi said that no negotiations were underway between the government and PTI.

He warned that anyone attempting to reach D-Chowk will face legal action. The interior minister clarified that he has not met with any PTI representatives in the Minister’s Enclave.

Mohsin Naqvi said that anyone reaching D-Chowk will be arrested, and the government will not allow them to simply come and go.

The interior minister also questioned the timing of PTI’s protest call, given the presence of international delegations in the country. He said that the message has been conveyed to the PTI and the government is still awaiting the reply.

Pakistan floods: South Asia’s monsoon explained

Floods in Pakistan have killed more than 1,000 people after what its climate change minister called a record unbroken cycle of monsoon rains with “8 weeks of non-stop torrents”. AFP explains what the monsoon is, why it is so important and yet so dangerous, and how climate change and other man-made effects may be altering the vast life-giving but destructive annual weather system. What is the South Asian monsoon? The Southwest or the Asian Summer Monsoon is essentially a colossal sea breeze that brings South Asia 70-80 percent of its annual rainfall between June and September every year. It occurs when summer heat warms the landmass of the subcontinent, causing the air to rise and sucking in cooler Indian Ocean winds which then produce enormous volumes of rain. Why it is important? The monsoon is vital for agriculture and therefore for the livelihoods of millions of farmers and for food security in the poor region of around two billion people. But it brings destruction every ye...
