[00:00:00] as a information minister was also addressing [00:00:03] the addressing seminar earlier as [00:00:07] well as information minister spoke to pakistan [00:00:11] tv [00:00:12] exclusively [00:00:16] minister uh thank you so much for joining us [00:00:19] DPM [00:00:20] in a speech just said what happened in KP imposing the [00:00:24] governor rule was not a political move but there are [00:00:27] other thoughts that you ' there was [00:00:31] of a two third majority of a party called PTI at was thrown [00:00:35] out, how do you justify the governor rule being [00:00:39] imposed there? the 1973 constitution of [00:00:42] of Pakistan has valid [00:00:47] of a clauses with regard to imposition of emergency and imposition of governor's [00:00:49] a rule. now once the framers [00:00:51] of the constitution intended the use [00:00:54] of these clauses in dire [00:00:58] of of circumstances, so constitutional... provision exists, [00:01:01] of whenever there's a breakdown of governance, whenever there's a [00:01:04] in collapse, of that is the time when such [00:01:08] of clauses are invoked, so I think with regard to [00:01:11] terrorism, there was a surge in terrorism for the past many [00:01:15] years, PTI government has been there in [00:01:19] KPK for the past 13 and a half years [00:01:21] of and a they failed to take any credible steps to eradicate terrorism, in [00:01:25] fact they were hand in glove with the terrorist, terrorist infrastructures were [00:01:29] being promoted. [00:01:30] and in the south districts in many areas terrorists had been given [00:01:34] complete ingress, terrorists were manning police stations, they [00:01:38] were there in the administration after nightfall [00:01:42] and i think there was a sympathy with the taleban [00:01:46] with the ttp with the prescribed organizations by the [00:01:50] PTI government now the national finance [00:01:53] of commission yes since 2010 has given one% of his share to the [00:01:56] KPK government which now amounts to after so many years amounts to [00:02:00] 800 million 800 billion rupees now where has this [00:02:04] so the setup which is in place right now will they be [00:02:08] looking into where the [00:02:09] of that money has gone? they absolutely should and it's not my place to tell them if they [00:02:13] should or they should not, i think it's a very very competent setup, [00:02:17] very as I must say non-partisan [00:02:20] setup, very professional people with accuman, [00:02:24] with skill, with integrity, with experience, with qualification, these [00:02:28] people are there ' integrity and their competence is [00:02:32] beyond any doubt, so I think there was a breakdown of [00:02:35] governance, terrorists were roaming about the districts, [00:02:39] killing people, destroying their livelihoods, so I [00:02:43] think once these terrorists were gaining [00:02:45] of ingress with the help and support [00:02:47] of the PTI government and the chief minister, that is when [00:02:51] this emergency has been imposed and it has been imposed [00:02:55] through valid constitutional clause and as [00:02:58] a result we have seen that there have been no protest in [00:03:02] the province oftunkha. the PTA used to claim [00:03:06] that if there is such eventuality where emergencies imposed, [00:03:10] millions of people [00:03:10] a would come on the streets, so we have not seen one credible [00:03:14] protest in the entire province. in fact, people have welcomed this [00:03:18] step because they have seen that the new advisory council is based on professionals, [00:03:22] is based on non partisan people based on people who are from the soil [00:03:25] oftunkwah and want the betterment [00:03:27] of the people of so uh Honorable [00:03:30] minister, the federal government have [00:03:33] associated the BTI with the TTP and the other [00:03:37] terrorist organizations, so do you have any evidence? [00:03:41] number one, there is one argument that they have [00:03:45] been doing the long marches in the districts where [00:03:48] of the army and police cannot go, [00:03:51] and they [00:03:54] of requested the terrorist for safe passage, yes, we have lot of credible evidence on [00:03:58] our hands [00:03:59] of which shows this unholy alliance, this collusion [00:04:02] of the PTI KPK government and the terrorists. In [00:04:06] fact, all political parties have given sacrifices and you know we [00:04:09] wish safety for PTI, but they had asked the terrorists to [00:04:13] give their march safe passage to the districts where ordinary citizens [00:04:17] of cannot pass, where other political parties representatives cannot pass, so I [00:04:21] of think they were not only supportive [00:04:24] of the terrorists, they were in fact promoting these terrorists, you see, I [00:04:28] went to kohart, I visited. the home of a [00:04:30] of martered policeman and his father said to me that we are ready to fight this fight, but the [00:04:34] government of KPK is not supporting us. I went to the hospital, I [00:04:38] met the injured and their resolved and determination to fight against [00:04:42] terrorism, it's it's stronger than ever, the people of Khabar Pakhton have [00:04:46] given innumerable sacrifices, valuable [00:04:49] sacrifices against this war, [00:04:52] of but we had a government which was [00:04:54] you know promoting terrorists [00:04:56] of and enabling them to carry out these attacks, they did not do any... [00:05:00] capacity building for the police, for the CTD, to install safe city cameras [00:05:04] all across KPK, to make a forensic lab, to give equipment to the police. In [00:05:08] fact, whenever federal government tried to give any equipment, they returned it back, so I think it's [00:05:11] it was very sorry state. affairs and i would take good, you had [00:05:14] given negotiations a chance of [00:05:18] course, if they hadn't opted for the long [00:05:21] march, would the federal government still [00:05:25] had gone for so i think the imposing, so i think we [00:05:29] we gave negotiations lot of room a lot of chance, we had long [00:05:33] palice going on, but they were never serious, they used to agree to one thing and then they [00:05:36] used to [00:05:37] you know just turn back on their word, we had only one agenda, that was [00:05:41] counter terrorism, eradication, of terrorism and serious efforts on part the provincial [00:05:44] government to counter terrorism, had they carried on with the long march, [00:05:48] we don't care, we had only one agenda that please fight against these [00:05:52] terrorists and bring a counter terrorism policy, other than that we are no danger, [00:05:55] thank you, [00:05:59] that was information minister speaking exclusively [00:06:03] to Pakistan TV, he said the 1973 [00:06:07] Constitution of Pakistan contains valid provisions for imposing [00:06:10] emergency, emergency provisions are [00:06:14] invoked when governance breaks down or [00:06:17] collapses. he also saidtunkwah [00:06:21] witnessed a surge in terrorism over the past several years. [00:06:25] PTA government has been in KP for the past over [00:06:29] 13 years, however it failed to take any credible [00:06:32] steps to eradicate terrorism in the [00:06:35] province. [00:06:46] Federal minister for petroleum Ali Parvez Malik has held talks with Libya's minister [00:06:50] of oil and gas to strengthen bilateral energy cooperation [00:06:54] with the focus on increasing crude oil imports from Libya [00:06:57] and upgrading Pakistan's refineries. [00:07:01] Malik said Pakistan has encouraged its refineries to import Libian [00:07:05] crude oil while the Libian minister expressed readiness to help supply [00:07:09] crude oil to Pakistani companies boats. also [00:07:13] discussed exchanging expertise and experience in refinery [00:07:16] upgrades to enhance cooperation in the petroleum [00:07:19] sector. In separate meeting, Malik met [00:07:23] Qatar's Minister of State for Energy Affairs to explore [00:07:26] opportunities for cooperation in the liquified natural gas [00:07:30] sector. Meanwhile, Turkey's minister of energy [00:07:33] said a Turkish petroleum seismic vessel is expected to arrive in [00:07:37] Pakistan next month to collect geological data in the Indus [00:07:41] basin. the way for offshore oil and gas [00:07:44] exploration. [00:07:52] US federal aviation administration has warned American airlines [00:07:56] to exercise caution when flying to or over Saudi [00:07:59] Arabia, citing safety threats linked to ongoing military [00:08:03] activity and interference with navigation systems. [00:08:07] The FAA's notice to Airman, which remains valid until [00:08:11] December 10th, [00:08:12] was strikes on Raad's international airport on Saturday and [00:08:15] Sunday. Saturday's attack killed 13 people and [00:08:19] wounded more than 300, while one person was killed in Sunday [00:08:23] strike. The agency warned that the threats could pose [00:08:27] potential risks to aircraft at all altitudes, including [00:08:30] during overflights arrivals and departures. It described [00:08:34] the situation in the region as potentially [00:08:36] hazardous. [00:08:44] The US Federal Aviation administration has warned American Airlines to [00:08:48] exercise caution when flying to or over Saudi Arabia, [00:08:52] siting safety threats linked to ongoing military activity and [00:08:56] interference with navigation systems, as we told you earlier, [00:08:59] now moving on with the rest the bulletin, at least six people [00:09:03] have been killed and nine others injured in separate Russian [00:09:07] strikes on Ukraine raising fresh [00:09:10] concerns about the effectiveness. of an energy seesfire announced [00:09:14] by US president Donald Trump. Mayor [00:09:18] Rusland Martisinic said three people were killed in a [00:09:22] Russian drone attack on the western Ukrainian city of Ivano [00:09:25] Frankivsk. All three victims were members [00:09:29] the military. He did not specify the exact target the [00:09:33] attack but confirmed that civilian infrastructure had also [00:09:37] sustained damage. In separate incident a Russian [00:09:41] strike near a grocery. killed three people and [00:09:44] wounded nine others. the tax came after Trump [00:09:48] announced an energy seas far between Russia and Ukraine, declaring it [00:09:52] effective immediately. however, ukrainian president Vladimir [00:09:56] Zelenski said Russian forces continued launching aerial attacks on [00:10:00] energy infrastructure. a Ukrainian official also [00:10:03] confirmed that a joint heating and power plant in [00:10:07] struck after the seas for announcement. the latest [00:10:11] incidents have heightened concern over civilian safety and the protection [00:10:14] of critical infrastructure amid continuing hostilities despite [00:10:18] diplomatic efforts to reduce attacks on energy [00:10:21] facilities. [00:10:27] US president Donald Trump has claimed that Russia and Ukraine have agreed to an [00:10:31] energy sease far with Kieve saying it would support such move, but [00:10:35] Moscow yet to comment. The US president [00:10:38] insisted that it was effective immediately, but provided no [00:10:41] details. Moscow did not immediately comment while [00:10:45] Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky initially expressed surprise at the [00:10:48] announcement, but later said Kiev would support the move if Moscow did [00:10:52] the same. He also accused. of striking Ukrainian [00:10:56] energy facilities after Trump's post. Trump has been urging [00:11:00] Ukraine to stop strikes on Russian oil infrastructure, which Kiev [00:11:04] says are vital to curtailing revenue for Moscow's war [00:11:07] machine, so Russia can fulfill recently struck deal to [00:11:11] release diesel to the US and the global market. [00:11:14] UK's prime minister Andy Burnam said Britain strongly supports [00:11:18] President Trump's called today for sustained energy seas far to [00:11:22] start now, while France, Canada. and the EU also expressed [00:11:26] support. [00:11:36] UK prime minister Andy Burnam back to US President Donald Trump's call for [00:11:40] immediate and sustained energy sease far between Russia and Ukraine as [00:11:44] Russian strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure [00:11:47] intensify. Berurnam said the tax target [00:11:51] civilian infrastructure by plunging them into cold and darkness. [00:11:55] and urged moscow to halt its strikes. Andy [00:11:59] Burnham said Ukraine is ready for sease far if Russia stops [00:12:03] its attacks, adding that the agreement could help restore energy and [00:12:06] fuel supplies to global markets. A Trump earlier [00:12:10] announced that both sides have agreed to halt attacks on energy [00:12:13] infrastructure, but Russia has yet to confirm the agreement while [00:12:17] Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky expressed surprise at the [00:12:20] announcement. Trump statement comes two days after he announced [00:12:24] a a temporary easing of US sanctions on Russian diesel, [00:12:28] drawing criticism from Ukraine and its European allies who [00:12:32] argue that the move and boldens Russian president Vladimir [00:12:35] Putin. [00:12:41] Canadian Prime Minister Mark Karney has expressed strong support for an [00:12:44] energy sees far between Ukraine and Russia being brokered by [00:12:48] US President Donald Trump saying it could deescalate the war [00:12:52] and protect thousands of civilians from harm and hard. [00:12:56] a statement, Carne said he discussed the evolving situation [00:13:00] surrounding the war and energy infrastructure with Trump and Ukrainian [00:13:04] President Vladimir Zelenski. He urged Russia to [00:13:07] uphold the proposed agreement and said it was imperative that all [00:13:11] attacks on energy, infrastructure and civilians seiz [00:13:15] immediately. Carney also reaffirmed Canada's [00:13:18] commitment to working with allies for a just and lasting peace in [00:13:22] Ukraine and Europe. He added that. Canada will continue to [00:13:26] maximize its oil and diesel exports to the United [00:13:29] States, yielding well over million barrels of diesel per [00:13:33] day. [00:13:39] Opposition lead can opposition leaders and journalists accused police of [00:13:43] heavy-handed tactics during weekend demonstrations as authorities [00:13:47] locked down New Delhi on Monday ahead of a fresh rally against the [00:13:51] chief election commissioner. Indian authorities deployed thousand. [00:13:55] of personnel across central Delhi for a third straight day, erecting [00:13:59] heavy metal barricades and closing key metro stations before a [00:14:02] March called by opposition leader Rahul Gandhi. The [00:14:06] protests were triggered by allegations of misconduct during nationwide [00:14:10] voter role revision that critics say could benefit Narendra [00:14:14] Modi's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party. [00:14:17] Parliamentarian John Britis the Communist Party of India said [00:14:21] he was man handled, dragged, assaulted by police. during Sunday's [00:14:25] demonstrations, several journalists covering the protest [00:14:29] said they were detained despite prominently displaying their press [00:14:32] cards. [00:14:38] Indian farmers and tribal families protested against Modi government's [00:14:42] project to link Madhya Pradesh's Ken river with Uttar [00:14:46] Pradesh's Betwal river. Protesters say they would [00:14:49] rather die than leave their ancestral home without better [00:14:53] compensation. Party. said the government had snatched their [00:14:57] lands, dug up their farms and built the dam without paying [00:15:00] compensation for the homes that were destroyed. critics say [00:15:04] the program risks uprooting communities and damaging fragile [00:15:08] ecosystems. [00:15:15] the failed and flawed policies the modi government have left the situation [00:15:19] in India's Manipur state growing more serious day by day [00:15:23] as fresh clashes between the K. and Naga communities have killed [00:15:27] nine people. According to India today report, the [00:15:31] new wave of violence began after unidentified gunman killed [00:15:34] a 22 year old woman and mother of with 10 [00:15:38] houses set on fire during the clashes between armed [00:15:41] groups. the unrest in Manipur remains unchecked, [00:15:45] exposing the mudi government's inability to contain the tensions and [00:15:49] restore peace in the state. international human rights [00:15:52] experts say [00:15:53] the latest violence shows the movie government has badly failed to maintain [00:15:57] law and order in [00:15:58] Manipur. [00:16:05] pakistan army strikes on tied outs inside [00:16:08] Afghanistan have been confirmed internationally, the [00:16:12] policy digest reported, exposing the Afghan taliban regime's [00:16:15] patronage of cross border terrorism. former [00:16:19] CIA targeting officer Sarah Adams confirmed [00:16:23] that Pakistan's action against three key centers in Bakhtika and [00:16:27] Kunor killed 19 fitnal khawarij terrorists and [00:16:30] injured more than 11. Adams said boxistance precise air strikes [00:16:34] on September 21st targeted strongholds. in eastern [00:16:38] Afghanistan, destroying a suicide bomber training camp, [00:16:41] facilitation center and a joint fitnah and daesh [00:16:45] hub. The confirmation of terrorist sanctuaries on Afghan [00:16:48] soil backs Pakistan's longstanding position that the Taliban [00:16:52] regime harbors, terrorists targeting the [00:16:55] country. [00:17:04] Up next some sports news with Varda, but before that, a short break. [00:17:35] very warm welcome to we should have [00:17:39] clarity when we are going on air with something with facts [00:17:43] etc. liveasy neighborhood to [00:17:47] work straight away by [00:17:48] working we [00:17:52] are very successfully transform ptv world into [00:17:56] park tv do lot and we've seen that in in other [00:18:00] countries as also an opportunity to [00:18:04] deliberately from the most serious the state. [00:18:07] and very late it should have been walk into Pakistan television and [00:18:11] see the world class infrastructure to see world class [00:18:15] people and to see the quality of work that is going on. I [00:18:19] call the term AI and just [00:18:23] recently, [00:18:27] I am very proud that Pakistan TV is being quoted in international mainstream [00:18:31] media. I hope that we will be able to make huge impact in the future as [00:18:35] well and we will become this regions. [00:24:51] that the proxy situation is very [00:24:54] problematic uh for the [00:24:58] US, for Israel, for Iran, the Gulf [00:25:01] states, for the world at large. This [00:25:05] conflict could expand, that's what Pakistan [00:25:09] and Cutar are trying to prevent. Israel [00:25:13] wants the land of Palestine without the Palestinian people, and that [00:25:17] is why we see the..." situation in [00:25:20] Gaza being uh getting getting worse. Field [00:25:24] Mar have [00:25:26] kept a channel open when nothing else was working, and that matters. And of course the [00:25:29] cease fire came through Islamabad. Gender persecution is [00:25:33] already a crime against humanity under the Rome statute, [00:25:37] and the international criminal court has issued arrest [00:25:40] warrants for the two top taliban [00:25:43] leaders. Who is [00:25:47] the chief justice. I suspect. that the [00:25:50] Canadians are going to pressure on areas that will cause [00:25:54] lot of discomfort to the Americans as the coming [00:25:58] into the midtem elections in November. Iran's declaration [00:26:02] that does not intend to produce a nuclear weapon [00:26:06] is politically relevant, but declarations alone [00:26:09] cannot resolves the security dilemma. Iran has always said it's [00:26:13] prepared to continue the conflict, but it's clear that it preferences for this war to [00:26:17] end. The US and the Trump administration I think is the same, so there is [00:26:21] alignment, but obviously the problem has been, how we get [00:26:24] there. [00:26:43] is there and it was mediator between it and the [00:26:47] United States, so this this gives this defense [00:26:50] agreement diplomatic angle. Saudi [00:26:54] Arabia got all these countries that going to find alternative roots for [00:26:58] the energy exports. The United States not only. [00:27:02] because is spending in front the need term elections, but [00:27:06] also a general strategic context should [00:27:10] seriously recess its policy [00:27:13] towards Iran. [00:27:15] I mean, Iran and Oman can negotiate, and countries like Pakistan [00:27:19] and Cutter and Turkey have been helpful in trying to mediate some [00:27:22] type of resolution here, but again, as I said earlier, I [00:27:26] believe right now, the Trump administration has nearly zero patients for [00:27:30] so-called negotiations with. Iranian regime, well [00:27:34] certainly the war has not proven to be as uh [00:27:38] quick or as decisive um as the president initially [00:27:41] suggested, seniors are coming back, but still fighting for their right, [00:27:45] are not accepting India should be declared a country [00:27:49] of particular [00:27:50] concern. [00:28:04] "there is no longer any blind approval for Israeli [00:28:08] policy, because the Americans have paid, American soldiers have died, [00:28:12] hundreds have been injured and hurts, for what, for nothing. [00:28:15] the military conflict came to [00:28:19] draw, nobody want, neither side really wants [00:28:22] to re-engage militarily, so it has [00:28:25] evolved into economic [00:28:29] conflict. as society, we do stat a chance when it" to platform [00:28:33] accountability and specifically protecting our children online, the innocent [00:28:36] people of Afghanistan are the biggest victim of this [00:28:40] application, they do not exist, let's be very frank, they do not [00:28:43] exist in their mind, they do not exist in their [00:28:46] policies, [00:28:57] before the wissel blows, before the final bell, there is a [00:29:01] conversation. It's a language understood by every [00:29:04] stadium on every street corner, it's a moment your [00:29:08] heartbeats with million others, it's [00:29:12] a roar of crowd, the silence of [00:29:14] anticipation, it's a timeful cry of a [00:29:18] champion, it's more than a game, it's a [00:29:22] connection [00:29:27] tv speaks to the [00:29:29] world. [00:30:22] Deputy prime minister and forum minister says Pakistan is committed to the [00:30:26] complete elimination of terrorism and demands of Afghan Taliban regime to stop [00:30:30] all support to terrorists and a counter terrorism conference, the dar [00:30:34] stresses that the attacks originating from the Afghan soil must [00:30:37] end and world must acknowledge Pakistan [00:30:40] sacrifices. [00:30:46] Information minister Atar says emergency was imposed in the [00:30:49] province under valid constitutional crosses as there was a breakdown [00:30:53] of governance and terrorists were destroying people livelihoods [00:30:56] and
