A comprehensive Muharram security plan is in effect across Pakistan to ensure law and order during the 9th and 10th of Muharram processions. Law enforcement agencies (LEAs) remain fully alert, with coordination at federal and provincial levels to monitor every aspect of security.

Nationwide Surveillance and Coordination

Authorities have established control rooms in Islamabad and all provinces. These centers are actively monitoring 2,763 mourning processions and 7,598 majalis taking place today across Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan, Azad Kashmir, and Gilgit-Baltistan. In 1,129 sensitive areas, surveillance drones and CCTV cameras are operating around the clock.

Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry, and Interior Secretary Khurram Agha are personally overseeing operations. They remain in direct contact with local authorities to ensure swift responses to any threat.

Zero Tolerance for Sectarianism

The government has adopted a zero-tolerance policy toward sectarian violence and hate speech.

Naqvi also reaffirmed Pakistan’s determination to thwart any threats from hostile forces. “Our enemies failed in the past, and they will fail again,” he said, alluding to anti-state actors like Fitna-al-Hindustan.

Religious Observance and Security

The solemn religious significance of Muharram is being respected through heightened security and logistical preparedness. Police forces, Rangers, and other agencies have been deployed in all major cities. Barriers, walk-through gates, and scanners are in place at key locations to ensure public safety.

This robust security framework underscores the government’s commitment to preserving peace during one of the most sensitive religious periods in the Islamic calendar. With unity and vigilance, authorities aim to maintain harmony and prevent any untoward incidents during the sacred days.
