Earlier on Sunday, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur clarified that the announcement of the civil disobedience movement was made by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder, not him.

Speaking to the media in Peshawar, Gandapur said, “There is no clarity on this matter yet. We will act on civil disobedience once clarity emerges.”

He said that their demands include the release of the party founder, restoration of their mandate, and reversal of unconstitutional amendments.

Addressing regional concerns, the Chief Minister criticized the federal government’s delay in negotiations with Afghanistan, stating, “If the federal government shows reluctance, I will engage at my level to resolve matters with Afghanistan.”
