Mahmood Khan Achakzai has convened a three-day jirga in Quetta to address the worsening security situation in Balochistan, including attacks on highways, trade disruptions, and killings. The jirga will involve political leaders, tribal elders, and stakeholders to draft recommendations for improving security.

The Judicial Commission of Pakistan is set to select three judges for the Islamabad High Court on July 20, a process that has become politically sensitive due to opposition protests and demands from Islamabad lawyers to prioritize local legal professionals. The IHC administration submitted three nominees, but bar associations argue the candidates lack local lawyer support, prompting calls for appointments from the federal capital’s legal community.

PTI leaders Salman Akram Raja and Junaid Akbar Khan emphasized that securing Imran Khan's release remains the party's 'ultimate objective' amid criticism of government intransigence. They accused the government of political repression and law and order failures, while highlighting Balochistan's strategic importance and governance issues.
