The election date is set, yet there's a sombre silence among other political parties.

Asad Qaiser, another senior leader of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, was arrested from his house. Asad Qaiser's crime is not holding a press conference against Imran Khan and supporting Imran Khan. Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf strongly condemns this arrest.
