No roadblocks created for protesters
Participants say power show will force ECP to expedite funding case hearing
ISLAMABAD: The government’s decision to allow free movement to protesters in the Red Zone on Tuesday caught the opposition parties unaware.
The peaceful movement of Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) workers on Constitution Avenue and setting up of a stage between the Prime Minister’s Secretariat and the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) reflected political maturity.
Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed had already abolished all police checkposts and the Red Zone was accessible to everyone. The government had allowed opposition parties to hold the protest gathering outside the ECP, therefore did not set up roadblocks on the roads.
