In a bid to stop the opposition alliance, the district administration has placed at least 30 containers to seal the venue and cut off electricity connections to create hurdles for the organizers. Mobile phone service and internet availability are also suspended in parts of the city.
Earlier the Punjab government had denied permission to the opposition parties for the meeting owing to increasing virus cases in the second wave of the COVID-19 in the country.
Earlier on Sunday, the administration took control of Qila Kohna Qasim Bagh stadium again besides arresting various Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) leaders and workers belonging to different political parties including the son of ex-premier Yousaf Raza Gillani after they stormed into the venue.
Bilawal Bhutto said in a tweet that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government is so threatened by upcoming foundation day of PPP that it has arrested the party workers including Kasim Gillani, son of former Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gillani.
