In Lahore, the Punjab Home Department has released a notification to enforce Section 144 across the province, aiming to uphold law and order during the upcoming elections.
The notification explicitly prohibits the display of all types of weapons under Section 144. It further outlines a comprehensive ban on firing during election campaigns and polling, with the imposition of Section 144 in case of any breach of the election code of conduct.
Concerned about potential clashes between candidates and their supporters, the Punjab Home Department has swiftly activated Section 144, effective until February 12.
