Prime Minister Imran Khan has called a meeting of the NSC to examine the TLP demonstrations.

During the meeting, the group will also discuss other national security issues, according to the minister.
The government communicates with the proscribed TLP.
The meeting's declaration comes as the TLP's march to Islamabad began on Thursday, with demonstrators entering Gujranwala.
A big number of demonstrators are marching toward Islamabad, calling on the government to free TLP leader Saad Rizvi as well as expel the French envoy from the country. They have been calling for the expulsion of the French envoy because of blasphemous information published and promoted in the European country, which has harmed the sensibilities of millions of Muslims throughout the world.
