Over 450 Opposition workers booked in Pakistan ahead of protests

Over 450 workers from Pakistan's Opposition parties have been booked in Lahore and other areas of the Punjab province ahead of the first grand anti-government rally by an Opposition alliance formed to oust Prime Minister Imran Khan.
 

On September 20, the leaders of 11 major Opposition parties announced the formation of the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) and launch of a three-phased anti-government movement under an “action plan” starting with countrywide public meetings, protest demonstrations and rallies before a “decisive long march” towards Islamabad in January 2021.
 

The first anti-government rally is scheduled on Friday in Gujranwala city, some 80 kms
