The Pashtun Tahaffuz Movement is a social movement for Pashtun human rights in Pakistan.

Earlier this month, Pakistani military's media chief Major General Asif Ghafoor warned the PTM leadership that the military won't tolerate the group anymore if it continued expressing their grievances through illegal activity including the use of violence.​
