The dominant opposition party in Pakistan, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), announced on Monday that the party is scheduled to resume its protest march on November 9.

The march was halted on November 3 following an assassination attempt against PTI's leader, Imran Khan, which left him with a wounded leg.

The party had decided at the time to halt the protests to avoid further violence.

On October 21, Pakistan's electoral authorities announced that they ruled out former Prime Minister Imran Khan from running in the upcoming elections scheduled to be held between August and November next year.

The reason, according to the authorities, was that Khan failed to share details of the gifts, incomes, and proceeds he had received. 

In August, the country's coalition government filed a motion against Khan over this. 

As a result, Khan was unseated from the National Assembly and was barred from running for political office for five years.

Khan was ousted back in April by the opposition through a no-confidence motion, as lawmakers from his party, Tehreek-e-Insaf, boycotted the vote. 

Since Khan's ousting, there has been a plethora of nationwide protests calling for a snap election as the country sinks further into economic devastation - particularly after floods took the lives of hundreds and destroyed numerous infrastructures. 

The Election Commission of Pakistan said the new election will not be held until May 2023.
