Tehreek-e-Insaf's response to the terrorist attack on Pakistan Air Base Mianwali.
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf expressed concern over the increasing incidents of terrorism in the country. The men of the security forces deserve great credit for foiling the attack with timely action at the risk of their lives. The rise of a new wave of terrorism in the country before the elections gives rise to various doubts. An effective national strategy is needed to control the incidents of terrorism and avoid more serious consequences.Tehreek-e-Insaf pays tribute to the young men who fought bravely and sacrificed their lives for the cause of the country.
Tehreek-e-Insaf strongly condemns Shahbaz Sharif's shameful hate propaganda.
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf's strong condemnation of Shehbaz Sharif's use of the martyrs who lost their lives in various terrorist attacks, including Gwadar, as a tool for their vile politics. "Shahbaz Sharif is a national criminal. It is shameful for him to make the martyrs a tool for his hatred and divisive politics. Instead of sharing the suffering of the martyr's families, trying to use their sacrifices for their own political goals is an insult to the martyrs. It is shameful to invite the killer of Kashmiris, Modi to their family functions, to ignore the Hurriyat leadership and to spread false accusations against the military around the world. Attempts to divide the nation are condemnable, and Shahbaz Sharif should know that these nefarious attempts of his will never succeed”, Tehreek-e-Insaf Spokesman.
Fascism against Tehreek-e-Insaf increased as soon as the election was announced.
The date of the election has been announced, and on the other hand, all resources are used to keep PTI out of this election. Despite the order of the Peshawar High Court, today's police raid on the Insaf Youth Wing Worker's Convention in Mansehra is the ultimate limit of fascism. The police deployed a heavy contingent at the convention site and bocked all the entrances and exits of Mansehra. The administration should not flout the orders of the High Court and not provoke the public.
Another prisoner's letter from Camp Jail.
Mohib Khan wrote a letter to Chairman Imran Khan from Lahore Camp Jail. In the letter, he said, "My dear Imran Khan Sahab! Surely our movement is a real freedom movement, and it will not stop until the nation gets real freedom. You have always taught us patriotism and this lesson will be with us till the grave. Even today, the nation and the lawyers are standing with you. God willing, the era of the country's development and prosperity will come very soon".

The honour of mothers and sisters in the country is not protected, and the courts are silent spectators.
Sahibzada Hamid Raza's sister, an Imran Khan supporter, was wrongly implicated in the May 9 incident, despite her no political involvement. This disturbing trend of disrespecting women, mothers, sisters, and daughters is deeply shameful. Instances like the mistreatment of Usman Dar's mother and the incidents at Alia Hamza's house are etched in memory. The police's disrespectful conduct toward Arsalan's sisters led to tragic consequences, including Arsalan's father's death. The police brutality extended to Tayyaba Raja and Sanam Javed, as seen in videos depicting their mistreatment. Countless women, including Khadija Shah, Rohina Khan, Rubina Jameel, and Shabnam Jahangir, faced humiliation. If the Chief Justice doesn't intervene, this issue could engulf all political parties.

The PML-N introduced a scheme to collect money from candidates before issuing tickets for the upcoming election.
