A report by Dawn News (large private TV network in Pakistan):

The report is in English, so you'll understand it.

The footage of the demonstrations is excellent. You see the communists and labor union leaders many times, and the news-caster mentions them again and again! :D

i've seen a lot of cardboards in english too
is that a "fashion" in protesting there?

It is a sad legacy of British colonialism.

In most protests, a significant part of the placards will be in English, even if it is far from perfect English on many occasions.
