ISLAMABAD \u2013 The federal capital has been sealed at several entry points with containers ahead of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) long march on September 27, while movement within the city continues.<\/p>\n

Traffic problems have emerged on routes leading into Islamabad. Containers have been placed at the M-1 Motorway toll plaza, which has been closed to all types of traffic. Traffic has been diverted towards the GT Road, while rest areas along the M-1 have also been closed.<\/p>\n

Containers filled with soil have been placed at the 26 Number Chungi, blocking the road. Containers have also been positioned on the route from Taxila towards Islamabad.<\/p>\n

Inside the capital, walls of containers have been erected at entry points to the Red Zone, with multiple checkpoints established at various locations.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Inspector General\u2019s Office has issued a letter approving a special daily duty allowance of Rs1,000 for personnel of the Punjab Constabulary deployed for security duties.<\/p>\n

Restaurants and shopkeepers in the area have reportedly been instructed to shut their businesses by this evening. Police sources said guest houses and transport terminals at Faizabad have also been directed to close by tonight.<\/p>\n
