In a significant escalation, the opposition alliance has vowed to continue its sit-in at the Parliament House until their demands regarding Imran Khan's health are met. This protest, which has entered its fourth day, was initiated after alarming reports indicated that Khan has lost 85 percent of his vision in his right eye. Barrister Gohar, representing Khan's legal team, stated that his personal doctors should be allowed to examine him in jail to assess his condition and submit an expert report. However, Federal Information Minister Attaullah Tarar has rejected speculation about any deal or special relief for Khan, asserting that his health is stable and not alarming, contrary to sensational claims circulating online. Tarar emphasized, "No deal, no leniency" for the PTI during a press conference on February 16, 2026, reinforcing the government's hardline stance amidst rising tensions surrounding Khan's health.
