The Central Majlis-e-Shura of Tehreek-e-Lubaik Pakistan, a banned religious party in Pakistan, has given a two-day ultimatum to the government of Pakistan, saying that if the agreement reached with them in April is not fulfilled, it will give a plan of action on Thursday evening. Will go


The TLP says its protest in Lahore has been turned into a peaceful sit-in on the orders of the Central Council.


Protesters say the government of Pakistan has repeatedly turned its back on the agreement with Tehreek-e-Libek.


He said that the agreement was asked to be implemented in three days while now six months have passed but not a single clause of the agreement has been implemented.


"There has been a peaceful protest on the sidewalks in Lahore for the last 15 days and no one has listened to them," he said.


The banned Tehreek-e-Libek has given a two-day ultimatum to the government that "if the agreement is not implemented, the next course of action will be announced on October 21 at 5 pm," the movement's Majlis-e-Shura said. "Even without closing the roads, I protested."


It may be recalled that the movement's protest in April was called off after the National Assembly of Pakistan decided to form a special committee to discuss the deportation of the French ambassador at the request of the banned religious party Tehreek-e-Libek Pakistan. ۔



TLP chief Saad Rizvi was arrested in Lahore in April this year.


Amir Saad Rizvi of Tehreek-e-Libek, who threatened a long march to Islamabad if the French ambassador was not deported by April 20 over blasphemous sketches of the Prophet of Islam, was detained by Lahore police in mid-April. ۔


Saad Rizvi was accused of inciting his party workers to protest against the government, during which several people were killed and injured in the violence.


After the arrest of Saad Rizvi, a series of violent protests by Tehreek-e-Libek began in several cities of the country.


At least four policemen were killed and hundreds injured during the protests.


The government had reached a four-point agreement with Khadim Hussain Rizvi, former head of Tehreek-e-Lubaik Pakistan, who staged a sit-in in Islamabad on November 16, 2020, demanding the deportation of the French ambassador. After the formation, the French ambassador had to be deported.


Following the non-implementation of this agreement, another agreement was reached between the party and the government in February 2021, giving the government until April 20 to comply with the French ambassador's deportation promise.


The group then announced a long march to Islamabad if the French ambassador was not deported by April 20. However, the recent series of protests on April 12 began after the arrest of the organisation's leader, Saad Rizvi.


Who is Saad Rizvi?

After Khadim Rizvi's death, his party's 18-member shura last year appointed his son Saad Rizvi as the new head of Tehreek-e-Libek, announced by the party's central deputy chief Syed Zaheerul Hassan Shah at the funeral.


At Khadim Rizvi's funeral in Lahore, his son Saad Rizvi reiterated his father's commitment to continue his mission.


Saad Rizvi was a student of Dars Nizami at his father's Jamia Abu Dharr Ghaffari Madrassa in Lahore. Dars Nizami is equivalent to MA education.


According to his close friends, Saad has close ties with college and university students.


He has a special interest in poetry and most importantly, he is well aware of the importance of social media in modern times and runs his personal accounts on Facebook and Twitter.
