Faizabad Protest

On 6th Nov 2017, he arranged a long-march from the city of Lahore to Islamabad to pressure Law Minister Zahid Hamid for resignation as he was alleged for favouring Ahmadis in the 2017 bill of Election of Pakistan. Soon, he started receiving favour and support from other religious-political parties, the public, and some other sections of society, increasing the protests nationwide.

The public started demanding the resignation of Zaid. So complete shutdown started, and the Pakistani government eventually responded with the forceful closing of all Pakistani news channels and social media sites to stop information flow.

This situation created confusion in Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and Karachi. Finally, in the evening army chief jumped into the situation and advised both sides to remain calm. 

Protests against Christian Woman Asia Bibi

On 31st Oct 2018, Asia Bibi, a Christian woman who had an allegation of blasphemy, was declared innocent by the Pakistan Supreme court after 8-years of conviction and detention. The final verdict said that an accuser of Bibi violated the Testament of Muhammad.

Justice Asif Khosa stated that two women who accused Asia were liars, and their claim was ‘Concoction Incarnate.’ The Pakistan Supreme Court ruling stated that ‘inconsistent statement and material contradictions of witnesses’ cast the shadow of a doubt on prosecution facts. Under Rizvi’s leadership, this situation triggered TLP and initiated demonstrations in Multan, Peshawar, Lahore, and Karachi.

They started clashes with police officials. TLP leader Afzal Qadri stated that all judges of the Supreme Court should be killed. Police sealed the red zone area of Islamabad to protect Pakistan Supreme Court. He demanded that under Pakistan’s panel code, maloona Asia should be punished for blasphemy in his public speeches.

He announced that he would continue his protest until the Pakistani government accepts his demands. Along with other party leaders, he was arrested on 23rd Nov 2018 and was freed on bail in 2018.

Assassination of Professors 

In March 2019, Khateeb Hussein, a 3rd-year student of Bahawalpur Sadiq Egerton College, murdered Khalid Hameed, an associate professor. Khateeb was in contact with a senior member of TLP Zafar Gillani before the murder; he obtained approval for an act over Tinder. The probable reason behind this murder was insulting and blasphemous behaviour towards Islam.

A seventeen-year-old student assassinated the Islamia College’s principal, Sareer Ahmad. That student accused his professor of involvement in blasphemy for admonishing him for bunking classes to go to rallies conducted by TLP. Both of these students said that Khadim influenced them.
