Backdrop

It may also be noted that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has announced a lockdown of the capital on November 2. The opposition party holds the stance that they are taking this step after all the state institutions denied transparent accountability on Panama issue. PTI chairman earlier demanded that NAB and other related institutions must take action against Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his family in Panama Leaks issue.

PTI then took the roads for protest which was called a ‘solo flight’ by other opposition parties. After a successful power show at Raiwind near house of Sharif family, Imran Khan announced the Islamabad lockdown.

Meanwhile, Supreme Court has also issued notices to Sharif family in case of Panama Leaks. The next hearing of the case is on November 1, just a day before Dharna.

In recent developments Pakistani Awami Tehreek (PAT) of Tahir-ul-Qadri has also announced to be part of the lockdown. The religious scholar was not supporting Dharna earlier.

As per the news and what I heard being in Isb , everything is going to be closed.
 
According to Democracy , a peaceful protest is allowed , I dont get why the govt. is so scared , they've arranged an army of policemen as if a war is going to take place and not a protest.
Yes a peaceful protest is allowed; but blockading a nation's capital which will lead to many deaths and hundreds of millions of dollars of loss is not...

We've seen these "peaceful protests" before.

Keyword being peaceful. IK attacked government buildings, disrupted public life and openly threatened violence last time.

Because the government is not democratic

Right. The last elections were just a show.

Bro government will probably go in to overdrive this time. From what I observed last time; normal commuters weren't too bothered. But I'd keep a few hours margin and I'd definitely NOT take out the fancy car.

Democracy: Nawaz as PM
Derailment of Democracy: Removal of Nawaz from PM seat (due to establishment)

And what about PTI? the ONLY democracy they know is when IK is PM, which is not happening ever if IK keeps up with this BS.

Be ready to do the journey on foot. All ins and outs of ISB will be blocked. You can try exiting from G-10/G-11 side on to Kashmir highway and then through to Pindi via Metro side.

Yes, model town was an example of women versus Government Bullets. Gullu Butt smashing cars under police cover is a perfect example of a peaceful protest.

Nawaz could have put himself forward first and foremost for accountability 6 months back and we wouldn't be here.

You are saying everything that protects Nawaz. He's not a God! He's ONLY a PM, and PM's can be convicted and replaced.

IK is not asking to topple the government. He's asking for Nawaz to be held accountable. 6+ months have past and it is the Government's problem now that IK is on the streets.

Protecting one man is not democracy.
