A day after the federal government imposed governor’s rule and emergency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa — formerly governed by the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf — security across the city remains heightened, with containers placed on major roads in Peshawar, police deployed to maintain law and order, and educational institutions closed on Monday.
Traffic remains impaired in key locations across the city, while internet and cellular services have been restored.
