During a press briefing, Tarar emphasised the necessity of moving the country forward without PTI's presence: "The federal government has decided to ban PTI." 

He cited "credible evidence" as the basis for this decision. Tarar further disclosed that the government intends to file a review petition with the Supreme Court of Pakistan challenging its recent ruling. Last week, the court had ruled in favour of PTI's eligibility for reserved seats for women and minorities, Dawn reported.
