Pakistan Imposes Emergency Rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Arrests PTI Leadership

Pakistan's federal government has imposed emergency and governor's rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province, a stronghold of Imran Khan's party (PTI), effectively suspending the provincial government and arresting its Chief Minister and PTI's party president. This action, citing Articles 232 and 234 and a failure to combat terrorism, is a significant centralization of power and has led to clashes and hundreds of arrests, escalating political confrontation and risking a constitutional crisis.
