Kathmandu. As per the statement from the President's office on Sunday, Pakistan has decided to place the northern province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa under emergency law following anti-government protests by supporters of former Prime Minister Imran Khan, who is currently in jail, and continuous unrest in the northwest.

Here, thousands of Khan's supporters have been marching in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, demanding his release and criticizing the government, which is motivated by a harsh economic situation.
