Islamabad: Foreign Minister S Jaishankar has accepted the invitation of the neighboring country to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit to be held on 15 and 16 October in Pakistan. But now another strange invitation has come for the Foreign Minister from Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, the party of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan. In this, PTI leaders have invited Jaishankar to join the protest against the Pakistan government. Everyone is surprised by this proposal of PTI.

Let us tell you that a PTI leader has invited External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar to "join" the party's protest in Islamabad against the government of Pakistan. Jaishankar is going to Pakistan to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Council of Heads of Government (SCO-CHG) meeting on October 15 and 16. Muhammad Ali Saif, Information Advisor to the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, invited External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar to participate in the protest of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in a program of Geo News on Friday.

Know why Jaishankar was invited

Responding to a question, Saif said, "PTI will invite Indian Foreign Minister Jaishankar to come and join the party's protest. Talk to our people and see that Pakistan has a strong democracy, where everyone has the right to protest." He also said that foreign delegations would be happy to see the party's protest. PTI is holding the protest and claiming that the government should follow the Constitution and insist on the independence of the judiciary. The party is also demanding the release of its 72-year-old founder Khan, who has been imprisoned for more than a year. Khan has been in jail since his arrest on August 5, 2023.

Khan, who faces dozens of cases, has been convicted in some of them. Pakistan army personnel were deployed in Islamabad to ensure security ahead of a protest called by Khan at D-Chowk on Saturday. The army will be in the city from October 5 to 17 to maintain law and order for the upcoming SCO. Authorities have taken strict measures to prevent PTI workers from entering Islamabad, all highways leading to the city have been blocked and mobile phone services have been suspended.
