Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, in a press conference alongside IG Islamabad, warned that key international delegations, including the Malaysian Prime Minister and a Saudi delegation, are currently in Pakistan.
He expressed concern that PTI’s protest could harm the country’s image, urging the party to act responsibly.
Naqvi stressed that while the right to protest is acknowledged, it should not come at the expense of national dignity or disrupt sensitive international events.
