Call for Solidarity
Pakistan Tehreek‑e‑Insaf (PTI) Punjab Chief Organizer Alia Hamza has made a strong appeal to party supporters, urging them to assemble outside Adiala Jail on Tuesday, November 25. She said the presence of workers and leaders at the jail would demonstrate solidarity with Imran Khan’s family, who are scheduled to meet him. Hamza emphasized that such family meetings are not a privilege but a constitutional, legal, and human right, recognized by the courts and permitted under jail regulations.
Emphasis on Rights
Hamza highlighted that attempts to block or restrict family meetings must be resisted collectively. She reminded supporters that the right to meet one’s family is protected under law and that denying it would be a violation of fundamental rights. By framing the issue in legal and constitutional terms, she sought to strengthen PTI’s political narrative that the party is defending not only its leader but also the principles of justice and fairness.
Mobilization Strategy
In her directive, Hamza instructed PTI ticket holders to ensure that at least four workers accompany them to Adiala Jail. She explained that as long as Imran Khan’s family remains present at the jail, PTI workers, MNAs, MPAs, and organizational office‑bearers should also stay there. This, she said, would send a clear message of unity and resilience. Express News reported that the Punjab leadership views this mobilization as a significant effort to showcase organizational strength and to remind authorities that PTI will not compromise on legal rights.
Political Context
Hamza’s call is being seen as more than symbolic. It reflects PTI’s broader strategy of mobilizing supporters around issues of justice and rights, while reinforcing the party’s stance during a challenging political period. By urging workers to remain at Adiala Jail alongside Khan’s family, PTI aims to project an image of collective resistance and solidarity, ensuring that its narrative remains visible both to the public and to the authorities.
