Pakistan is in turmoil once again as clashes erupted between police and supporters of the Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, resulting in the death of one party worker and injuries to several others. The situation has escalated to the point where PTI chief Imran Khan and other party leaders have been booked in a case. This development is alarming, and it is imperative for the international community to step in and help diffuse the situation before it worsens.
Imran Khan was a great celebrity in his time, known for his cricketing prowess and philanthropy. However, in recent years, he has become a prominent politician, with his PTI party winning the general elections in 2018. Khan's vision for Pakistan is to transform it into a welfare state, guided by the principles of the Madina state created by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the teachings of the Quran.
This vision has resonated with many Pakistanis, especially the youth, who are tired of the corruption, inequality, and poverty that have plagued the country for decades. However, Khan's political opponents, including the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) party, have been resistant to his reforms, leading to protests and clashes like the ones witnessed recently.
The use of force by the police to break up the PTI rally is a cause for concern, as it raises questions about the government's commitment to democratic values and the rule of law. The PTI claims that the deceased party worker, Ali Bilal alias Zil-e-Shah, died of police torture, while the police maintain that they were simply maintaining law and order.

Regardless of who is at fault, the loss of life is tragic and underscores the need for peaceful dialogue and negotiation between the government and opposition parties. The international community, including the United Nations, should step in and offer mediation services to prevent the situation from deteriorating further.
Pakistan is a strategic country in the region, and stability is essential not just for the Pakistani people but also for global security. The international community must ensure that the democratic process is respected, and the rights of all citizens, regardless of their political affiliation, are protected.
Imran Khan has sacrificed much in his quest to transform Pakistan, and his life is now at risk. It is the responsibility of the government to ensure his safety and the safety of all citizens, and the international community must offer its support in achieving this goal.
In conclusion, the recent clashes in Pakistan are alarming, and the loss of life is tragic. The international community must step in and help diffuse the situation, promote peaceful dialogue, and protect the rights of all citizens. Imran Khan's vision for a welfare state is admirable, and it is imperative that his efforts are not in vain. Pakistan must be allowed to move forward towards a brighter future.
