00:00 In Karachi, GDA, JUI, Jumat-e-Islami and PTI are being protested on Shahra-e-Faisal
00:06 due to which there is a bad traffic jam.
00:09 Let's ask Faizullah about the further details.
00:12 Faizullah, tell us what is the situation and where are the protests taking place?
00:17 See, the opposition parties announced the protest at the time of the meeting
00:23 and the situation in Karachi is that
00:26 JUI workers have protested in the direction of Rashid Mehmood Somro
00:31 due to which the traffic from Super Highway to Hyderabad is being affected.
00:38 Along with this, the main National Highway is also being protested
00:42 and the traffic is also being affected there.
00:45 The same kind of protest is going on at Shahra-e-Faisal
00:49 and because of that the traffic is also being affected at Shahra-e-Faisal.
00:53 The protest of GDA outside the Karachi Press Club is going on at this time.
00:57 The workers of GDA have reached there and are recording the protest.
01:01 All these political parties had announced the arrival of the Sindh Assembly
01:06 but the police have sealed the entire red zone after the 144th Nifaas
01:12 and have closed the roads that come here by placing containers.
01:16 Only the road from the Supreme Court Registry to the Sindh Assembly is open
01:21 but only the people who have raised their voices and the people related to the Assembly are allowed to go.
01:27 The Islamic Jamaat and PTI are also part of this protest.
01:32 So Faizullah, tell us how many arrests have been made so far?
01:35 Did you get any information about this?
01:37 Look, outside the Sindh Assembly, some of the women workers of the public movement
01:42 and some of the workers of JUI have been arrested.
01:45 There were about 15 workers who were arrested outside the Sindh Assembly
01:51 and many of them were women and they were transferred.
01:55 Along with this, some workers of GDA have been arrested near the Press Club and around it.
02:02 They have also been transferred to the police station.
02:04 The protest of the workers of JUI is going on.
02:08 There has been no arrest on Shahra-e-Faisal and Toll Plaza yet.
02:13 But the police have also placed barriers there and are not allowing the workers to go ahead.
02:19 Because of this, the traffic on Shahra-e-Faisal, Toll Plaza and National Highway is affected.
02:24 And because of the red zone containers, the traffic is closed.
02:27 Thank you very much, Faizullah.
