[00:00:19] Emergency will be implemented in 12 districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. In the remaining districts,
[00:00:23] governor rule will be imposed. According to sources, Kurram Upper and Lower
[00:00:26] South Waziristan, North Waziristan, Bajaur,
[00:01:05] target someone, kill someone,
[00:01:30] and constitutional rights will be attacked. talk about is
[00:01:31] If
[00:01:38] there is an emergency or governor rule, call a meeting of the federal or
[00:01:41] provincial ex-committee and find a solution to the problem in that meeting.
[00:01:45] This is the advice of Chairman Barrister Gohar. Speaking to the media in Peshawar, he said
[00:01:49] that an emergency or governor rule would further worsen the situation.
[00:01:53] At this time, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa cannot afford more experiments.
[00:01:56] There is a difference of opinion on the method of eliminating terrorism,
[00:02:00] which needs to be resolved.
[00:02:01] ہے۔
[00:02:09] Governor of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Faisal Karim Kundi, has said that governor rule or emergency
[00:02:13] or both powers will be used in the province.
[00:02:17] These issues were discussed today. Speaking in Geo News program Naya Pakistan,
[00:02:25] government is arguing and for this, Faisal Karim Kundi rejected the possibility of further talks with PTI. He said that if PTI stormed the Governor's House, it would be a crime
[00:02:28] of illegal action.
[00:02:30] is so dire
[00:02:40] Secretary Information of PTI, Shaukat Yousafzai, has said that imposing
[00:02:44] an emergency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa would be the federal government's biggest
[00:02:48] foolish decision. Emergency is not a solution
[00:02:51] to the problem in any way, nor is it a crisis. Speaker of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly, Babar
[00:02:55] Saleem Swati, has said that 11 members
[00:02:58] to bring of the National and Provincial Assembly have so far allegedly.
[00:03:08] Whenever they want, they carry out
[00:04:22] regarding the number and nature
[00:04:30] We will kill everyone. This is, they don't talk that way anymore. By the
[00:04:33] way, we will kill everyone. And behind 20 guys,
[00:04:37] praise be to Allah. Praise be to
[00:04:39] Allah. Praise be to
[00:04:42] Allah. And I say, do, I say, man, you
[00:04:46] guys, you
[00:04:47] really,
[00:04:50] America.
[00:04:53] In a rally address, they address the large crowd on Iranian leadership.
[00:04:57] to now.
[00:05:00] So you clap. He also criticized the Democratic candidate
[00:05:03] for Senate, Mohammad, and without presenting evidence, called Mohammad
[00:05:07] Al-Sayed an extremist jihadi. He said that he would not allow any jihadi
[00:05:10] senator in Michigan.
[00:05:46] Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif's directive to immediately install smart scanners at airports.
[00:05:50] Orders to scan baggage with smart scanners instead of customs officials
[00:05:53] and to stop customs officials from unnecessary
[00:05:57] questioning of passengers. In his address to the meeting on the customs system, he
[00:06:00] said that no one would be allowed to harass passengers.
[00:06:03] گے۔
[00:06:09] In Islamabad, a case was registered regarding the discovery of the body of 22-year-old student, Laiba.
[00:06:13] The accused, Nauman, who committed fraud by posing as an agent, was arrested
[00:06:17] from Islamabad. The accused claimed to have found evidence of online fraud
[00:06:20] and blackmailing women through his phone. The accused was an employee in anti-corruption
[00:06:24] in Quetta, who had been suspended. The family said that Laiba
[00:06:28] wanted to go to America for further education. The consultant demanded
[00:06:31] 7 million rupees. The father, who sold milk on a motorcycle,
[00:06:35] sold a plot and paid 2.1 million rupees in cash, and the mother
[00:06:39] mortgaged her jewelry in the bank and paid the remaining amount to the agent.
[00:06:43] When Laiba checked the documents, they turned out to be fake.
[00:06:57] PTI's long march, led by Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Sohail Afridi,
[00:07:01] reached Mardan. Addressing the workers, Sohail Afridi said that on October 13,
[00:07:05] they would announce the next plan of action in Swabi. He said that opponents want
[00:07:09] to eliminate PTI. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's NFC share is not being given.
[00:07:21] Section 144 imposed in Rawalpindi for one month. Rallies, processions, sit-ins, and
[00:07:25] protests will be banned. According to the issued notification, in view of security
[00:07:28] concerns across the district, Section 144
[00:07:31] has been imposed.
[00:12:35] Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Rahim. Assalamu Alaikum, viewers. It seems
[00:12:39] that sooner or later, governor rule or
[00:12:42] emergency will be imposed in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,
[00:12:47] the federal
[00:12:50] that the law and order situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
[00:12:55] that the current setup cannot be continued for much longer.
[00:12:59] In today's jirga, we will try
[00:13:02] to find out whether the law and order
[00:13:06] situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is really a big and serious
[00:13:09] problem, or whether the federal
[00:13:12] government is exaggerating in this regard
[00:13:16] and using it as a tool to defame the PTI government.
[00:13:20] We have tried
[00:13:23] highly credible, impartial, and informed
[00:13:27] journalists before you
[00:13:30] in today's jirga so that we can hear
[00:13:34] from them, those whose own interests are not
[00:13:38] attached to whether this government or that government is in power,
[00:13:42] or whether there is an emergency or governor rule, or the current
[00:13:45] elected PTI government. So, Mr. Ismail Khan,
[00:13:49] a senior journalist, is joining us from Peshawar,
[00:13:52] and Arshad Malik Sahib is with us here.
[00:13:56] In the studio, I have journalist Mr. Ehsan Tipu
[00:14:00] Mahsud, and Mr. Ismail Khan, I would like to start
[00:14:04] with you. Please tell us what the law
[00:14:08] and order situation is like in the province
[00:14:11] at the moment, and is TTP really a big
[00:14:14] threat? Sir, this law and order situation
[00:14:18] is not law and order. It is not
[00:14:21] to be simplified that it is law and order.
[00:14:25] This is a serious
[00:14:28] issue of your national security. And you can look at
[00:14:32] the southern districts, or you can go
[00:14:35] towards Kurram. Come to Khyber.
[00:14:38] Now, around Peshawar, in Hasan Khel,
[00:14:42] which is the area very close to us,
[00:14:45] the situation has become so bad
[00:14:49] that it is worrying that the situation
[00:14:53] in 2000,
[00:14:55] the kind of situation that existed,
[00:14:59] the same kind of situation exists now.
[00:15:02] You must have seen, I think, you will have figures
[00:15:05] in front of you of how many attacks are happening
[00:15:08] and how many casualties are happening. Compare
[00:15:11] it to 2001,
[00:15:15] before 2021, when Ashraf Ghani's government was in power.
[00:15:18] Compare the situation from then
[00:15:22] Compare the situation after that. And there has only been
[00:15:26] an increase, and a decrease. The leaders of that area
[00:15:29] themselves say, and we also know, people who have been living
[00:15:32] there, some people have started migrating
[00:15:36] because the situation there has become very serious.
[00:15:39] So this is not a law and order issue; it is a security
[00:15:43] issue that has become
[00:15:45] very bad. There is no doubt about it. Okay.
[00:15:48] Ehsan, please tell us, in their attacks, in their
[00:15:52] recruitment, and now there are also reports that their revenue
[00:15:56] generation is also such that they can sustain themselves
[00:16:00] for several years, and then they have moved from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
[00:16:04] to Balochistan. So this is also, I think, an alarming
[00:16:07] situation for the Pakistani state, and there, it's not
[00:16:11] just that we often see their attacks in Pashtun areas. Around
[00:16:14] Quetta, in Ziarat, etc., in Makran Division,
[00:16:18] there are also reports that commanders belonging
[00:16:22] to the P.L.A. have some kind of alliance with them.
[00:16:26] So I think that there also, many matters have gone
[00:16:30] wrong, and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa attacks used to happen once
[00:16:33] or twice a week when we used to say it on your show, but now, daily,
[00:16:37] three, four, five attacks are happening, and it's not just that they
[00:16:43] but they also kidnap people, especially security forces personnel,
[00:16:47] and then their videos are also released. Even yesterday,
[00:16:51] in Nowshera, although Nowshera is considered an area where
[00:16:54] there is a cantonment, all those things, police officers were abducted
[00:16:58] from Nizam Pur in Nowshera, which is very close
[00:17:01] to Attock. So what we often
[00:17:05] the TTP's own strategy
[00:17:08] to keep it confined to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and in an interview, I myself
[00:17:12] asked Noor Wali Mahsud about Al-Qaeda, and his
[00:17:16] answer was interesting. Here, on media or social media,
[00:17:20] when we see people, they don't try
[00:17:23] to get to the root of this problem and just talk in the media flow.
[00:17:27] So I asked about Al-Qaeda, what is the relationship between Al-Qaeda
[00:17:31] and TTP now? He criticized Al-Qaeda
[00:17:34] in return. He said that one major
[00:17:38] difference is that you have to stay focused, and he gave the example of the Afghan
[00:17:42] Taliban, that the Afghan Taliban only focused on Afghanistan,
[00:17:45] did not carry out any global operations. They did not go from here
[00:17:49] to America and carry out attacks against Americans, but they remained fully focused
[00:17:53] and now they have come to power. So because of this, we have also
[00:17:57] ended the global jihad that used to happen in the past
[00:18:00] and are fully focused only on Pakistan, and
[00:18:04] within Pakistan, on Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. His justification is correct.
[00:18:07] Mr. Arshad Aziz Malik, it is being said that so many
[00:18:11] districts, some say 11, some say nine, are practically
[00:18:15] such that there is no actual government
[00:18:18] there, and the Taliban's government is running there. You leave Kohat
[00:18:22] and take the whole area from Lucky Marwat to Bannu, then
[00:18:26] Karak and Tank, Hangu, then
[00:18:29] Orakzai and D.I. Khan, the entire southern region,
[00:18:33] along with the eight districts of FATA, you
[00:18:37] take them, and then you go towards Gher, then this whole
[00:18:41] area is with them.
[00:18:45] operations. You have no plan to stop
[00:18:49] them. Of course, our police are present
[00:18:52] everywhere here, but the police do not have the infrastructure
[00:18:56] that they should have had to counter them. The army
[00:19:00] carries out operations here, but they are very targeted
[00:19:04] and limited to small areas.
[00:19:07] They go, carry out an operation, and come back. But if
[00:19:11] you look at the past few days,
[00:19:14] you will see major incidents like the Kohat
[00:19:18] incident, the D.I. Khan incident, the Bannu incident.
[00:19:21] But you will also see small incidents, like target killings.
[00:19:25] For example, in Karak, the SHO was martyred,
[00:19:29] along with his gunman. I am telling you about the whole
[00:19:32] week of last week. In Khan,
[00:19:36] six customs officials
[00:19:53] are carrying out operations, and these target killings will be seen everywhere
[00:19:56] across the province. So it's not like Peshawar
[00:20:00] is safe. I didn't say much about Peshawar because our surrounding
[00:20:04] areas, like Hasan Khel or our Matani
[00:20:08] area, these areas are also such that they have been seen
[00:20:12] there. Those people are there, and from Khyber
[00:20:15] district, they come to the nearby areas
[00:20:19] of Peshawar. So it would not be wrong to say that there
[00:20:22] are about 18 such districts where their movement is very easy.
[00:20:26] Otherwise, they can carry out operations throughout the province. I am not talking about that, but their people
[00:20:30] have been seen in almost that many districts
[00:20:34] where they are moving freely. Okay, viewers,
[00:20:52] a dream that has now become a reality.
[00:20:56] Kain Hospital, the largest center for modern treatment
[00:21:00] and rehabilitation of neurological diseases in Pakistan, is fully operational.
[00:21:04] This historic milestone was achieved with your Zakat, Sadaqah,
[00:21:08] and generosity. This center is a new ray of hope for thousands
[00:21:12] of families, but the journey is still ongoing.
[00:21:15] Be a part of the mission for further expansion and new departments.
[00:21:18] Support today. Your
[00:24:47] Welcome once again to the Jirga. Viewers,
[00:24:51] a regular performance report is issued
[00:24:54] by the TTP to the media on a daily
[00:24:58] basis. Although, despite this, we cannot
[00:25:01] show it daily. And not only
[00:25:05] do they prepare a report on a daily basis
[00:25:09] and issue it to the media
[00:25:12] of operations, but at the end of the month,
[00:25:16] they calculate the total and issue a report for the entire
[00:25:20] month to the media. The last month,
[00:25:23] September, its report
[00:25:26] is currently in front of me, and according
[00:25:30] to it, according to the TTP's report, during
[00:25:33] this month, 394
[00:25:36] operations took place, and in these,
[00:25:40] 382 people were injured,
[00:25:43] and according to them,
[00:25:45] 213 deaths occurred.
[00:25:49] And the institutions that suffered losses in terms of deaths
[00:25:53] or injuries include the army (202), FC
[00:25:55] (188), police and CTD
[00:25:58] (145), while 60 members
[00:26:01] of peace committees were also involved. And then they also
[00:26:05] provide details district-wise. So according to these details,
[00:26:09] in South Waziristan, during this month, 98
[00:26:12] operations took place. In North Waziristan, 50 operations
[00:26:16] took place. In Peshawar, 43. In Dera Ismail Khan, 26.
[00:26:19] In Kurram, 18. In Tank, 18.
[00:26:22] In Bannu, 12. In Khyber, 11. In Orakzai,
[00:26:26] 8. In Bajaur, 7. In Harnai, 6. In Pishin,
[00:26:29] 5. In Mohmand, 5. In Chitral,
[00:26:43] and in Swat and Makran, one each. These operations were carried out.
[00:26:46] And then they also describe
[00:26:50] the nature of their operations. So in September,
[00:26:54] the TTP carried out 81
[00:26:57] laser attacks, 57 guerrilla attacks,
[00:27:00] 57 direct
[00:27:15] and two suicide or martyrdom attacks, as they
[00:27:17] call them, were carried out by them. From this, you
[00:27:21] can gauge what the situation
[00:27:23] is like in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa at the moment.
[00:27:27] And even if there is a lot of exaggeration in these statistics
[00:27:31] of the TTP, then I often mention
[00:27:35] one thing that the wall of
[00:27:38] Martyrs' Memorial at the Corps Headquarters
[00:27:41] in Peshawar is quite long and wide,
[00:27:44] and it is filled with the names of martyrs,
[00:27:48] and now a second wall is being constructed next to it.
[00:27:52] So from this, you can imagine the sacrifices
[00:27:55] of the security forces. These are the martyrdoms of the army
[00:27:59] where the names of their martyrs are written,
[00:28:01] and the police of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,
[00:28:04] on the one hand, officers like Malik
[00:28:08] Sa'at and Saft Ghayur were martyred
[00:28:11] in dozens, and on the other hand,
[00:28:15] thousands of police personnel
[00:28:18] are also making sacrifices. So let's continue the discussion
[00:28:22] with our guests. Ehsan, the strength and power
[00:28:26] of the TTP, obviously, after the APS
[00:28:30] and the launch of major operations, for some time, we saw
[00:28:33] that the TTP had almost disappeared
[00:28:37] from the scene. How did the TTP get
[00:28:41] a new lease of life? In 2018, when Mullah Fazlullah
[00:28:44] was killed by an American drone in Kunar, Afghanistan,
[00:28:48] after that, Noor
