Lahore [Pakistan], December 9 (ANI): In a failed effort to stop the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) an 11-party alliance from holding the sixth rally on December 13, the Prime Minister Imran Khan-led government has flooded the Minar-i-Pakistan lawns.
Meanwhile, Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar-led administration has enforced smart lockdown in 45 areas of Lahore, including areas close to the rally s venue.
The government has not given permission to PDM to hold the rally.
In the past months, Khan stepped up his efforts to silence the voice of PDM along with thousands of people who criticised the government. The PTI government released water at Minar-i-Pakistan in the early hours of Tuesday. When we learnt about it we rushed there and stopped further watering (by the administration), Dawn quoted Bilal Yasin, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) lawmaker from Mohni Road as saying.
