ISLAMABAD: Today, all roads have been cleared and reopened, and the Metro bus service has resumed its regular operations in Islamabad.
The Islamabad city administration has assured citizens that the situation is under control and that normalcy has been restored.
Traffic police are actively managing the flow of vehicles to prevent any further disruptions.
The Metro bus service, an essential mode of public transport in Islamabad, was suspended as a precautionary measure. Additionally, schools were ordered to close, further disrupting the daily routine of residents.
Residents of Islamabad have breathed a sigh of relief as the city returned to normalcy following a day of intense disruption and chaos.
The federal capital experienced significant interruptions due to the closure of key roads and the suspension of the Metro bus service amidst heightened security concerns.
The disruptions stemmed from the implementation of strict security measures by authorities, who were responding to a planned rally by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and the Supreme Court hearing of the Mubarak Sani case. Fearing potential unrest, the administration sealed off major entry points into the city, including the Red Zone, by placing containers and other barricades.
