[00:03:34] cannot be won until the provincial government leads it. This is the force.
[00:03:37] You will see that when the government leads them, good results will be achieved.

[00:06:16] rule is an attack on democracy. Opposition alliance leader
[00:06:20] Mustafa Nawaz Khokhar said that the governor's rule is like depriving the province
[00:06:23] of its political voice. The power to choose rulers belongs to the people,
[00:06:40] Ahsan Iqbal, said that the governor's rule and emergency
[00:06:43] are not preferred measures, but the constitution allows them. Declaring them unconstitutional
[00:06:47] is not correct. In a statement, he said that the increasing lawlessness in Khyber
[00:06:51] Pakhtunkhwa had become a challenge for the country. The long march was becoming a means
[00:06:55] of providing safe passage to terrorists. The government made every possible effort to resolve matters
[00:06:58] through negotiations, but PTI once again prioritized stubbornness and ego over political
[00:07:02] wisdom and lost its last safe haven government. Thank
[00:07:06] you, PTI.

[00:09:59] we will have to bring it. Along with this, we have no option to fail.
