In response to heightened violence in Pakistan-occupied Gilgit-Baltistan (PoGB), authorities have imposed a curfew and enacted a ban on pillion riding, exempting women, children, and the elderly. This security clampdown follows two shooting incidents targeting notable figures, including Chief Court Justice Malik Enayat ur Rehman, which have raised significant concerns over law enforcement and public safety. The regional administration is under pressure to restore stability, with officials condemning the attacks and pledging swift investigations. This situation underscores the growing instability in PoGB, reflecting broader challenges related to governance and security in the region, which may have implications for India’s strategic interests in neighboring territories.
