The PPP banners and flags are put up across the city and the PPP workers are excited about the venture. The people willing to participate in the march will gather at Numaish Chowrangi and depart as a convoy.
The PPP had announced the long march to protest the inflation, hike in petroleum products prices, and other measures taken by Prime Minister Imran Khan-led federal government.
Moreover, keeping the commencement of Bilawal’s long march, Karachi traffic police have worked out an alternate traffic plan to maintain the flow of traffic in the city despite the closure of some routes.
The traffic police say that the road leading from Gurumandir to Numaish Chowrangi, the starting point of the march, will be closed for traffic therefore the commuters may use the road leading to Soldier Bazaar from Gurumandir and the to Jail Road flyover using Jamshed Road.
Similarly, the general public will not be allowed to use the route from Society Chowrangi to the starting point. However, they can use the road leading to Jail Chowrangi from Society Chowrangi.
The road leading to New M. A Jinnah Corridor 3 from Regal Chowrangi will also be closed for the general public therefore they may take the road to Shahrah-e-Faisal through Lucky Star from Saddar Dawakhana.
