"Borders are being erected between provinces, with routes linking Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa being blocked with nails" — journalist Zaeem Laghari questioned the governance in a post on X.
ISLAMABAD (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 25th Sep, 2026) The land link between Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab was severed during Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s protest, leading to the closure of motorways ahead of their September 27 demonstration.
These closures had a significant impact:
- Halted people's movement
- Disrupted the supply of food items, other goods, and petrol
Journalist Zaeem Laghari shared a video on social media platform X showing a route linking Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa blocked with nails. In his post, he highlighted that provinces were being separated rather than united, questioning the quality of governance.
Citizens expressed concerns, calling for the government to allow goods transport to prevent a food shortage.
