Lakki MarwatPakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf begins its march on Islamabad after talks collapsed.
Marchers demand jailed ex-premier Imran Khan’s release, and the government vows to bar them from the capital.
The party governs Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and talks broke over that province’s counterterrorism role and whether leaders could meet Khan first.
Peoples Party leader Sherry Rehman said the draft agreement was changed four times after it was agreed.
The caravan reaches Khairabad on 8 October, where Chief Minister Sohail Afridi says the next phase will be announced.
