KP govt bars employees from attending PTM rallies

Peshawar: The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government banned its employees from attending any rallies or activities organised by the banned Pashtun Tahafuz Movement (PTM).

In a notification issued on Tuesday, states that participation—whether physical, financial, or otherwise—by any government official in the activities of proscribed organizations is illegal and will be met with legal action.

The document further reads that all employees across various government departments have been informed of the restriction, warning that any violation would result in strict measures under the law.

This move follows the federal government’s decision to designate PTM as a proscribed organization.
