Islamabad Police have removed containers from eight locations following orders of Federal Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar on Wednesday.
According to reports, containers have been removed from various locations including PTV Road, Secretariat Chowk, Convention Center, France Chowk and Radio Pakistan Chowk.
Chaudhry Nisar had ordered to remove containers from all areas except the Constitution Avenue. Moreover, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) and Rawalpindi Bench had also given orders to remove the containers.
Two months earlier, the government had blocked the roads with more than 600 containers to halt the long march and protests of PTI and PAT. All the routes to and from Red Zone were sealed.
The announcement by the interior minister to remove containers came as almost 70 percent of the protestors have left the Red Zone. Reports say that several tents set up by PAT protestors have also been removed and sanitary staff of the CDA was busy to cleanse the area.
