PTI’s efforts to mobilize protesters for the upcoming rally have largely failed, with party workers opting to get arrested rather than risk participating in a protest that could expose the party’s collapse.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite days of intense efforts by PTI MNAs and MPAs, the protest plans have fizzled out, and even Bushra Bibi’s stern warnings did not have the desired impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bushra Bibi’s recent remarks have drawn significant criticism, with questions raised about her addressing judges and lawyers despite lacking any formal role within the party.

The controversy has escalated with accusations of inciting violence and provoking the judiciary for political gain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
