In a major move to ensure public safety, Islamabad has been placed under lockdown today. The capital’s roads, including key highways, have been closed off by local authorities. Additionally, all hotels and guest houses are shut down, and no new bookings are being accepted.
The lockdown comes in response to rising security concerns, with authorities taking precautionary measures to prevent potential disturbances. Police and security personnel have been deployed across the city to maintain order, with checkpoints established at key intersections and entry points.
Public transport services have been halted, and traffic on major routes leading in and out of Islamabad is at a standstill. Residents and commuters have been advised to stay indoors and follow official instructions.
The government has not yet disclosed the specific reasons behind the lockdown but has promised to provide updates as the situation evolves.
