He has also been a member and he has also been the ex-chairman [00:00:04] of All Pakistan Textile Mills Association. He [00:00:08] will be an advisor on power and [00:00:12] is caught, energy and he is [00:00:15] a well-known name and does not need any introduction [00:00:19] and in terms of professional competence and positive contribution [00:00:23] his track record is also very good and very clear. [00:00:27] that Allah will help us Information Broadcasting is sitting with me on my right. [00:00:30] Samar Haroon Bilour Sahiba, she is currently a member of the National Assembly. She has also been a member of [00:00:33] the KP Assembly. Along with this, she has also been [00:00:37] the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Information and Public Relations of KP. [00:00:41] But I would definitely like to say that [00:00:44] I don't understand how the KP government comes before [00:00:48] Samar Haroon Bilour Sahiba, whose husband [00:00:51] was martyred for the country of Pakistan, whose father-in-law was martyred [00:00:56] this is not an extra-constitutional for the country of Pakistan, and in the same way, the rest of the Bilour family [00:01:21] are those people who have seen funerals rising from their homes, [00:01:25] but they still talk about terrorism with conviction. [00:01:29] They did not back down, they did not show cowardice like these [00:01:32] cowards in KP, the PTI government, who [00:01:36] would be allowed to challenge the rit of had given full free rein to the terrorists. If you want to learn courage, [00:01:40] bravery and resolve, then come and learn from this woman. [00:01:43] The way she has raised her voice against terrorists for [00:01:47] several decades, [00:01:48] said that yes, some of despite her immense personal loss that her family suffered. [00:01:51] Come forward now. These [00:01:54] were overall portfolios within the Advisory Council. Azam [00:01:58] Sahib has already [00:02:10] representation and in this too [00:02:12] cover these things efforts will be made that the federal government is engaged [00:02:16] with the Governor Sahib that it should be [00:02:19] completely balanced and independent and there we need [00:02:22] a local political [00:02:25] paktunkhah because of resolve and support. [00:02:26] record and the history of Pakistan needs it, so God willing, it will also be [00:03:00] As a resident of Pakhtunkhwa [00:03:03] and what we went through, [00:03:06] in the morning, he contacted Maulana in 2008, my children and I moved [00:03:09] to Islamabad as IDPs when my father-in-law [00:03:12] was attacked twice by suicide bombers, they failed, [00:03:16] but as you know, he was martyred [00:03:19] in the fifth attack. A rocket fell on my house, [00:03:23] due to which the roof of my children's bedroom collapsed, [00:03:26] and after that we had to leave our home. [00:04:00] They neither sacrificed nor did they feel anyone's pain. [00:04:03] We are sitting here today, [00:04:06] and my brothers have already shared all the technical details with you. [00:04:09] I want to talk to you about the martyrs of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. [00:04:13] I want to talk about women. I want to talk about Southern [00:04:17] Pakhtunkhwa. Laki Marwat is my ancestral village. [00:04:20] And from there, I have been receiving messages day and night [00:04:24] for so many months, which I have also shared [00:04:27] here too, the situation is with Ata Bhai. That girls, parents, students. The situation is so bad that [00:04:31] children cannot study there. About six [00:04:34] months ago, almost 700-800 girls [00:04:38] dropped out of Bannu University. Because on their way back, [00:04:41] the path they had to take, some used to go to Laki Marwat, some to D.I. Khan, [00:04:45] so such a control of saboteurs [00:04:49] was established on these roads, that the girls had to [00:04:53] stay home to protect their dignity. For a long time, [00:04:55] there was a perception in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa [00:04:58] that our sacrifices, [00:05:02] our sufferings, every year that thing is [00:05:06] God willing. intensifying. Every year it is increasing. No one [00:05:10] takes its name. So we felt that [00:05:14] this is our solitary war. They say, for a drowning person, [00:05:17] a straw is enough. Islamabad has sent a whole branch [00:05:21] for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa today. So we will grab this branch [00:05:25] with both hands. We will help them. We will [00:05:28] pray for them. And we will assist them. And [00:05:32] I will try that the sentiment of the people of Khyber [00:05:36] Pakhtunkhwa. There was no development of any kind, [00:05:39] no prosperity of any kind. In education, the curriculum of [00:05:42] 2013 is still running, but because [00:05:46] terrorism and insecurity are so rampant, all other things [00:05:50] have been left behind. So the tough decision [00:05:53] we have made today, we have made it with the resolve to serve. [00:05:57] We are not doing [00:06:00] this under the leadership of Governor Faisal Karim Kundi Sahib, [00:06:03] under his leadership, for some medals. [00:06:06] We are doing this because of the agony our children have gone through, [00:06:10] because of the closeness we have gone through, if we can save [00:06:14] someone else's home, if we can save another woman's husband, [00:06:17] if we can save children from the pain [00:06:21] and stigma of orphanhood, then that would be [00:06:25] such a thing for me. You know, according to Pashtun tradition, we [00:06:29] have been taught that even if there is sorrow in the enemy's house, we have to go and share their sorrow. [00:06:32] Such people came that they not [00:06:36] only don't attend funerals, but they mock [00:06:39] them, they spread filth about them on [00:06:43] social media, and I assure you on behalf of the entire Pashtun nation [00:06:47] that if any soldier [00:06:51] of the army is martyred in our area, [00:06:54] if any policeman is martyred, any customs officer comes [00:06:58] from another area, then he is also a Pashtun martyr. He sacrificed [00:07:02] his life to save us, to keep us safe. So those [00:07:06] widows who are sitting at home, did anyone [00:07:10] go to them, did anyone ask them? Do you need anything, sister? [00:07:14] Do you have money to run the kitchen? Do your children [00:07:17] have any means of transport to go to school? Small [00:07:21] things. This is the responsibility of the government. You cannot bring [00:07:25] their loved ones back, but in their grief and pain, [00:07:28] they did not fulfill this duty. But we who [00:07:32] are sitting here today. We are sitting with the resolve that we will [00:07:36] fill those gaps. Which is the work of the state [00:07:40] and the government. To place a hand on the head [00:07:43] of the weak, the helpless class. So I hope that we will be able [00:07:47] to place that hand, we will be able to become their voice, [00:07:51] and whatever we can do for these women, children, [00:07:54] elders, parents, we will do. We also want, Pakhtunkhwa [00:07:58] also wants that development should happen on our side at the pace of the rest of Pakistan, [00:08:02] but development will happen only when lasting peace comes. So we will request [00:08:06] all of you to support us in this mission so that we can move forward. Naveed [00:08:09] Akbar Chohi Sahib. No, you start the question. [00:08:20] for the Federal Interior Minister Sahib and for you too. First of all, Sir, tell me [00:08:24] that the administrative changes [00:08:27] we were talking about in the provinces or the formation of those units, [00:08:31] have these two administrative units been formed because both will work separately, [00:08:34] it will be separate in 12 districts and in the rest, one. And along with that, [00:08:38] Sir, have the former [00:08:41] cabinet members, the Chief Minister, been taken into protective custody [00:08:45] in Khyber because otherwise they are leading such a protest [00:08:48] which the public considers to be chaos and the public believes that [00:08:52] they have a significant hand in disturbing the peace and order of the province? So has [00:08:56] any such step been taken to improve the peace and order? [00:08:59] Absolutely, first of all, let me clarify [00:09:02] that in no way any administrative unit, [00:09:06] and the Law Minister Sahib will explain in detail, or [00:09:09] such a division is not being made that we say that [00:09:12] here two [00:09:16] provinces are being formed, two administrative units are being formed, not at all. It is written in between. [00:09:20] This is written in the notification. [00:09:23] As the Interior Minister Sahib is saying, the Additional Chief Secretary of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa [00:09:26] has been dedicated. Meaning, he is subordinate to both the Governor Sahib and the Chief [00:09:30] Secretary. He has been given a dedicated secretariat [00:09:34] because there is a war going on there. So immediately, [00:09:38] like South Punjab, in South Punjab, there is an Additional Chief [00:09:41] Secretary. [00:10:12] we will have to lift them and we will lift them. And as quickly [00:10:16] as we can normalize the situation, we will do it. There is no such situation there [00:10:19] that their existing [00:10:23] group, I will just give them [00:10:26] this message that it is better for them to disperse. [00:10:29] Because they don't have [00:10:32] any provincial protection now. And whoever [00:10:37] full legal action will be taken against them, [00:10:40] and then they will be responsible for it themselves. We will deal with [00:10:44] them very strictly. So my request to those people is that [00:10:48] please disperse now so that life can be smoothed [00:10:51] there. Okay, my name is Luqman Shah, I am from V News. Anjum Nazir Tar Sahib, please tell me [00:10:55] what will be the duration of the emergency and governor's rule? [00:10:59] And Mohsin Naqvi Sahib, please tell me what is the future [00:11:03] of the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and his cabinet? Will they go to jail [00:11:06] or will they remain in Pakhtunkhwa? Mohsin Naqvi Sahib is not [00:11:10] an astrologer, so he has said that [00:11:13] whoever is with the law, look, this is a constitutional option [00:11:17] that has been used, [00:11:21] option, with due respect, in the 1973 constitution, [00:11:25] this is the scheme of the original constitution, rather in the 18th amendment, [00:11:28] it has been made more airtight and the control of the parliament [00:11:32] over it has been increased. So these [00:11:35] 232 and 234 have themselves provided [00:11:39] the mechanism up to [00:11:42] 234, because [00:11:45] the assembly is also rendered inactive, [00:11:49] and the legislative powers of the assembly [00:11:52] are given to the parliament. So its upper capping [00:11:56] limit has been determined in it, which is six months [00:11:59] at most. And the internal disturbance [00:12:02] and to fight [00:12:05] terrorism and to make the country safe, the mechanism [00:12:09] of 232, until the situation normalizes [00:12:13] in the judgment of the federal government and the satisfaction [00:12:16] of the President Sahib, it can continue, and in this, [00:12:20] as you know, the government remains inactive, [00:12:23] and the federal government [00:13:25] will take them into protective custody to maintain it. But among them, those [00:13:28] who are wanted will be arrested, and all others [00:13:32] will be released as soon as the law and order situation improves. [00:13:35] Sir, Mr. Naqvi, please tell me, Zulqarnain A.R.Y. News, [00:13:39] whenever an intelligence agency submits a report, it does so based on evidence. [00:13:43] Has any intelligence agency submitted a report [00:13:47] with evidence that the KP government's cabinet [00:13:51] had linkages with the Taliban? Has that evidence come here? [00:13:55] Secondly, it was portrayed that the federal government says that [00:13:59] the situation is bad in all provinces, but a long march was held there and not a single [00:14:02] terrorist incident occurred. What is the reason for that? Thank you. [00:14:06] Look, ask them why no incident occurred. So, [00:14:09] the second thing is, I will also answer another thing, [00:14:13] but before that, your question. Absolutely, [00:14:16] there is evidence. Not one, not two, not three, there are dozens. [00:14:20] Okay? So there is clarity on that. And [00:14:24] we also discussed this with the negotiation committee. Secondly, [00:14:27] let me just tell you an interesting thing. We [00:14:31] have a lot of contact with the Afghan government. [00:14:35] And we had negotiations with them in Saudi Arabia and Qatar. [00:14:38] China also got involved, Turkey also got involved, [00:14:42] everyone got involved. We have one demand from them that they have not [00:14:45] been able to fulfill yet. We say, speak openly [00:14:49] with us on terrorism. Exactly [00:14:52] that they are not ready [00:14:55] to come. What is the reason? Ask them. [00:14:59] If it's your country, you should be the first to say that we are united on terrorism, [00:15:03] not on other things. Now when you add ifs and buts to it, that no, not like this, [00:15:07] then it won't happen. So [00:15:09] the problem we had with the Afghan government is the same problem we have with them. [00:15:13] And for the rest, you can think for yourself, the evidence is present. [00:15:16] Irfan Sahib. Assalamu Alaikum, Mr. Naqvi. Syed Irfan Raza from Dawn. [00:15:20] The KP government has been in power for almost 13 years [00:15:24] and they have not been able to control terrorism. So what do you [00:15:28] think is the timeline, how long will it take you? And secondly, [00:15:31] the situation in Balochistan is also bad, so what is your [00:15:35] plan regarding that? they will make it available. [00:16:01] I have great hope in Allah [00:16:04] and the situation there, I'm not saying [00:16:46] it has changed or is good, but it has started making a difference. May Allah help [00:16:50] us in this too. Sir, my name is Intizar Haideri, [00:16:54] from GTV News. Sir, my question is to all three of you, [00:16:57] that when the federal cabinet meeting was going on, it came to light [00:17:01] that at one point it was perhaps decided [00:17:04] that a delegation of the cabinet [00:17:27] has the situation deteriorated since then or had the [00:17:30] situation already reached a point of no return [00:17:33] before that? Look, as I mentioned, [00:17:36] there are two aspects to this: a purely legal [00:17:40] and constitutional framework. In this, [00:17:43] you are more aware of the requirements written in the constitution than us, [00:17:46] and all of you, by the grace of God, [00:17:50] very well. Take yourself back [00:17:53] for a moment to the past years and what we said in the beginning, [00:17:57] and someone in the cabinet also asked this question about the material. [00:18:00] The briefing by the different [00:18:04] officials of the Interior lasted for more than an hour. [00:18:14] and there are many other things that are not shared due to national security. These are serious matters, [00:18:18] grave matters, what was the level of collusion. [00:18:21] Regarding the cabinet, [00:18:24] the Prime Minister Sahib's wish was there [00:18:27] until the last moment. Yesterday, he invited Maulana Fazlur [00:18:31] Rehman Sahib, he came. [00:18:35] He also said the same thing yesterday, and with a very open heart, Mohsin [00:18:38] Naqvi Sahib, Ata Tarar Sahib were present in the meeting. Then [00:18:43] again, and when the cabinet meeting [00:18:47] was held again, it was once [00:18:50] again given to Mohsin Naqvi Sahib and the Deputy Prime Minister [00:18:54] that if there is any improvement in the situation, [00:18:56] you make one last effort, [00:19:00] because look, such actions are not taken happily. [00:19:03] These are not things to celebrate. [00:19:07] But for the good of the country, to save the country, for the [00:19:11] security of the country, for the protection of the people, these powers [00:19:15] should be used with great clarity. And then the cabinet [00:19:19] fully gave this authority to the Prime Minister Sahib, [00:19:23] which was his authority. The Prime Minister always makes [00:19:26] such big decisions in the cabinet after [00:19:29] a very open debate. So there was no other [00:19:33] ambiguity in it. Mohsin Naqvi Sahib, I am Saqib Saeed from Ab Tak News. [00:19:36] Operations have been ongoing in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa since the [00:19:40] PPP era, and they are still continuing. [00:19:44] But no significant results have been achieved yet. [00:19:47] What different strategy will you adopt [00:19:51] due to which this terrorism will be eliminated or the law and order [00:19:55] situation will be restored there? The reason for this is that [00:19:58] in South Waziristan or Tirah, in various places, [00:20:02] those who were displaced have not been able to return to their homes yet, [00:20:06] and the compensation they were supposed to receive in various forms has not been received till today. [00:20:09] Look, I will apologize to you [00:20:13] for the strategy, to tell you the strategy or [00:20:17] to tell it on media. As far as compensation [00:20:20] is concerned, that should be asked from the government [00:20:23] of that time why compensation was not given, and I think [00:20:27] now the Prime Minister Sahib and the President Sahib [00:20:31] both have focused greatly that whatever financial [00:20:34] needs are there, they will be fulfilled, and if there are any [00:20:38] dues of the people, they will be given priority first, [00:20:50] currently detained, would you call them political prisoners? what changed to justify [00:20:53] suspending kps elected government right now while they're mobilizing? did [00:20:57] feel Marshall Assim recommended under his new role as CDF [00:21:01] and the last question is will this bring expanded military operations or civil [00:21:05] restrictions? think there are four questions, so first [00:21:08] of all as I said in the beginning [00:21:11] that this is purely a constitutional [00:21:14] option, constitutional option available to the prime minister [00:21:18] under the constitution which is a... sensus document and it is [00:21:22] for the satisfaction of the president, so CDF or [00:21:25] field marshall as far as this decision making is [00:21:28] concerned, the the field marshall or or CDF [00:21:31] figures nowhere in the constitutional scheme and practically as well, [00:21:35] yes, as far as the security concerns [00:21:38] are are there, yes our army is fighting there [00:21:42] alongside the the the local police, but you have [00:21:46] seen the way the political government had had been contributing. [00:21:50] for that war against terror, so the [00:21:52] fundamental grounds for imposition of emergency [00:21:56] are law and order, [00:21:59] fight against terrorism and to [00:22:02] save innocent people from from from the dreadful [00:22:05] consequences of terrorist [00:22:06] activities, [00:22:10] we are in the, i think this would be shared by the [00:22:14] provincial authorities [00:22:15] because [00:22:18] till 11 a.m. I would say the Khaiber Pakhton [00:22:22] Kha was run by provincial government headed by Sohel [00:22:25] Afridi, he he may add to certain [00:22:28] things, but as far as the [00:22:31] administration in the new framework is concerned, interior minister has been [00:22:35] very candid and clear, he [00:22:38] them have been taken into preventive [00:22:41] custody, which is legal course available under the constitution [00:22:45] and the laws and those who would be wanted in in criminal [00:22:48] cases, they would be dealt. with accordingly and rest would be sent home and [00:22:52] if we will arrest someone we will declare it, we have nothing to [00:22:55] hide for so we will definitely declare it, i just want to add and you [00:22:59] may like to report this comment, these this this [00:23:02] government which has been suspended [00:23:06] through a constitutional option is [00:23:09] responsible for the deaths of thousands [00:23:12] of citizens of khibar [00:23:15] their pro-ttp, pro [00:23:18] tta policies, these were people who are [00:23:21] apologists for these terrorists, who are sympathizers, who have always been [00:23:25] sympathizers and let me also remind you that the [00:23:29] policy of TTA towards women has been reflected by the [00:23:33] KPK government with regard to women's rights, with regard to women's [00:23:36] education, you may like to look at the statistics, how they have [00:23:39] deprived women of their right to [00:23:42] livelihood and their right to education, just one [00:23:45] example, for your consumption, for all of [00:23:48] you ' [00:23:51] under age marriage laws have been enected [00:23:54] by three provinces of Pakistan [00:23:58] because it is very serious issue our very [00:24:02] young girls are becoming mothers and there [00:24:06] is lot of fertilities and all that [00:24:09] it's the only province which remained relected and [00:24:13] I have been personally requesting them because under the [00:24:16] international covenants we were under obligation to [00:24:50] celebrates October 12th as a black day every year. So what is your plan for tomorrow? [00:24:54] Will you also celebrate a black day tomorrow? Yes, we will celebrate a black day [00:24:58] because this is the green book. I will also request you [00:25:01] to read that proclamation and also read [00:25:04] today's proclamation. I will explain in simple Urdu. [00:25:08] I will explain in simple Urdu. My elders [00:25:11] prepared this document with consensus, and it took [00:25:14] months. It is the constitution of 1973, and we [00:25:18] all view it with great reverence. [00:25:22] The constitution has provided many [00:25:25] mechanisms to keep the state of Pakistan united, to keep it strong, and [00:25:28] to protect the rights of the citizens living in the state. [00:25:32] This emergency was imposed [00:25:36] in the constitutional mechanism. That emergency was imposed [00:25:39] by an army chief, and he came as a martial law administrator. [00:25:42] So please be gentle. Thank you very much.
