ISLAMABAD: On Wednesday, the Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) seeks permission from Islamabad’s administration to hold its scheduled ‘Azadi March’ on October 27 at D-Chowk.

JUI-F leader Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Haideri field an application to chief commissioner Islamabad for permission through his counsel Kamran Murtaza. The protest is planned in the federal capital’s red zone.

The request even asks the administration to ensure the “necessary security arrangement” for the march.

On the other hand, the Islamabad High Court has ordered the JUI-F to not hold its anti-government march and sit-in without the approval of the authorities in Islamabad.
