Editorial
PTI has scheduled a political gathering in Islamabad for September 8th, 2024. Following the elections, PTI has struggled to mobilize a large-scale protest movement regarding the alleged election rigging or to rally support for the release of its leader, Imran Khan.
The PTI leadership has faced substantial criticism for their inability to effectively organize a protest movement for “haqeeqi Azaadi,” as they refer to it. This upcoming political gathering is a significant opportunity for PTI, especially considering efforts by the federal and provincial governments of Punjab to discourage attendance. If PTI manages to hold a large rally, it could provide them with the momentum to launch a political movement aimed at destabilizing the current government, which is accused of being established through rigging.
The success of this gathering will depend on the courage displayed by PTI’s second and third-tier leadership in the face of governmental repression. Additionally, the narrative and message conveyed during the political gathering will be crucial—whether it will focus on “haqeeqi azaadi” or the release of Imran Khan.

The turnout for the upcoming political gathering holds immense significance for various reasons. Firstly, a substantial presence at the event will serve as a pivotal factor in determining its success. A large attendance will not only indicate public support but also boost the morale of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party workers, who have faced marginalization over the past two years. Their enthusiasm and engagement at the gathering are vital for the overall image and momentum of the PTI. Furthermore, a successful event will have a positive impact on the government, as it will showcase the party’s strength and solidarity. Moreover, all stakeholders involved, including party members, supporters, and the general public, have a vested interest in the success of this gathering as it has the potential to shape the political landscape and decision-making processes. Therefore, the significance of this gathering cannot be understated, and its success is crucial for PTI and the government’s future prospects.
