Interior Ministry sources said that the ministry has been recommended to put a letter in the federal cabinet meeting regarding lifting the ban and removing the name ban. According to sources, after the Punjab government, approval will also be sought from the federal cabinet. The letter will be placed in the next meeting of the federal cabinet or approval will be sought from the cabinet through circulation.

It may be recalled that the banned outfit had recently staged a protest demanding release of its jailed leader and lifting of the ban on the outfit.

Later, a round of talks between the federal government and members of the banned organization began, which was successful, and then the protesters moved from the road to a nearby park.
