[00:00:15] belong to KP,
[00:00:51] undesirable.
[00:01:53] and the Federation will now handle
[00:02:06] presented our stance
[00:02:14] Now, the point is
[00:02:25] Your question is,
[00:02:29] First of all, the point is
[00:02:33] Pakistan's share of
[00:02:45] it. The shared waters of
[00:04:10] and not with them.
[00:04:12] The protesters
[00:04:19] But now we have to see
[00:04:30] close monitoring of the movement of Khawarij in the area and their presence.
[00:04:34] Security forces are determined to eliminate terrorism
[00:04:37] in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Operations will continue until the last terrorist is
[00:04:42] understanding or among their eliminated.
[00:04:47] Turmoil continues in the Indian state of Manipur. The Modi government has failed miserably
[00:04:51] to control the tension. The situation is becoming more and more serious
[00:04:54] day by day. The number of deaths in fresh clashes between the Kuki and Naga communities
[00:04:58] has reached nine.
[00:05:42] Confirmation from the Saudi Arabian Civil Aviation Authority, earlier on Saturday, 12 people died
[00:05:46] and over 300 were injured in an attack on Riyadh Airport.
[00:05:50] The Houthis also attacked Dammam Airport and the damage is being
[00:05:54] assessed. Statement from the Authority on X. A ballistic missile
[00:05:58] fired by the Houthis on Khamis Mushait and a drone fired towards the eastern province
[00:06:01] were destroyed in the air by the Arab
[00:06:05] coalition
[00:06:05] forces.
[00:07:29] Water must never be weaponized.
[00:07:33] Rivers should nourish nations, not
[00:07:37] divide them. Therefore,
[00:07:39] any attempt to stop, impede,
[00:07:43] or divert
[00:07:45] the waters will be treated as an act of
[00:07:49] war.
[00:07:52] India must make no mistake about
[00:07:58] the Indus River system are the lifeblood not only for the
[00:08:01] people of Pakistan but for the entire
[00:08:05] region. India's unilateral decision to
[00:08:08] hold the existing treaty in
[00:08:11] abeyance has no legal basis
[00:08:14] whatsoever. In fact, both its claims and
[00:08:17] actions have been rejected by UN
[00:08:20] experts and more recently by the court
[00:08:23] of arbitration. Our legitimate stand
[00:08:27] that the treaty remains valid, binding,
[00:08:31] and fully operative has been
[00:08:33] vindicated beyond any shadow of
[00:08:36] doubt.
[00:08:54] Kashmiri women are bravely facing the atrocities of the Indian
[00:08:58] forces. Indian
[00:09:01] soldiers have martyred over 2300 Kashmiri
[00:09:04] women since 1989.
[00:09:06] ہیں۔
[00:09:08] Kashmiri women are being forcibly disappeared by their loved ones.
[00:10:45] In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Assalam-o-Alaikum viewers, I am Syed Anwar-ul-Hassan and you are watching the program
[00:10:49] "The Truth Is" on PTV News Islam Studio. The President of Pakistan has imposed emergency and
[00:10:52] Governor's Rule in the province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa under
[00:10:56] Articles 232 and 234 of the Constitution. Its official
[00:11:00] notification has been issued and
[00:11:02] under Article 245 of the Constitution, the Pakistan Armed Forces
[00:11:06] have also been deployed
[00:11:09] in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in aid of civil
[00:11:13] power. Its new proclamation has also been issued.
[00:11:16] You are aware that the PTI government
[00:11:19] in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was carrying out a long march. Besides that,
[00:11:23] there was no alignment between them and the federal government
[00:11:27] regarding counter-terrorism, and a conflictual situation
[00:11:30] was arising. Due to this, today under the leadership of Prime Minister of Pakistan Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif,
[00:11:33] a two-hour long federal cabinet meeting was held,
[00:11:37] in which the report of the Intelligence Bureau and the report of the Governor of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
[00:11:40] were shared, which stated that in two years, i.e.,
[00:11:44] from 2024 till now, terrorism in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
[00:11:47] has seen an increase of 195%.
[00:11:51] The incidents and martyrdoms have increased by 113%.
[00:11:55] Therefore, based on this, the President of Pakistan was advised
[00:11:58] to impose emergency and
[00:12:01] Governor's Rule there. And now
[00:12:05] the provincial government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
[00:12:09] has ended, it has been suspended, and the provincial assembly
[00:12:12] has also been rendered inactive under Article 234 of the Constitution,
[00:12:18] all these matters. Besides this, an 11-member advisory council has also been formed,
[00:12:21] whose first meeting was also held today. Governor Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
[00:15:01] First of all, the detailed points you made
[00:15:05] and presented everything clearly, so I don't need to repeat
[00:15:09] what happened and what didn't. Sir, I will speak politically
[00:15:12] and simply, so that the common man can understand.
[00:15:16] Sir, this imposition of Governor's Rule or emergency
[00:15:20] was not good for us,
[00:15:23] and we were not in favor of it. We thought
[00:15:27] that other means, and then we left
[00:15:30] all other matters like bad governance, corruption, etc.
[00:15:33] We just came to one point, that the issue of
[00:15:37] terrorism, at least everyone
[00:15:40] should be on the same page regarding it. The facts and figures
[00:15:44] you gave about the percentage increase
[00:15:47] in it, and we
[00:15:52] where we see on a daily basis that bodies are coming
[00:15:56] and martyrdoms are happening everywhere. And what is the situation?
[00:16:00] And there is a lot of no
[00:16:03] go areas, people's businesses have also ended, all kinds
[00:16:07] of governance is non-existent. So in these circumstances, we tried
[00:16:11] and there were negotiations with them, as you know in detail,
[00:16:15] and 12 hours also passed, and we all
[00:16:19] came to the same page, and then in the end, Mr. Suhail Afridi
[00:16:22] vetoed all of them. So the real
[00:16:26] point of our disagreement
[00:16:29] was that on the issue of terrorism,
[00:16:33] the provincial government, the federal government,
[00:16:36] and the Pakistan Armed Forces should all be on the same page.
[00:16:40] A declaration should be issued within 72 hours
[00:16:44] that we are all united on this issue and our one point is
[00:16:48] that we will call day day and night night, and we will call a terrorist a terrorist,
[00:16:51] and we will all together fight against it. He
[00:16:55] disagreed with this, and our
[00:16:58] negotiations failed. Now, first of all,
[00:17:01] I want to say in this that people already know
[00:17:05] that you first talked about
[00:17:07] the opposing leader. Maulana, let me ask
[00:17:11] a question in between. Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman held a press conference today. He said
[00:17:15] that a lot of things had been decided when he met the Prime Minister.
[00:17:19] Sir, no, yesterday I was also part
[00:17:23] of that meeting. Okay. And Maulana Sahib came, and his
[00:17:26] team was also there, and we were also there with the Prime Minister.
[00:17:30] We had a discussion last night, and he brought very good sentiments and ideas.
[00:17:34] And Maulana Sahib is also a national leader, and it is his duty
[00:17:38] to play his role in such matters. Anyway, the Prime Minister
[00:17:43] to him, but things didn't work out among them.
[00:17:47] That's a separate matter.
[00:17:52] that I want to go to the question you asked. The most important question
[00:17:55] is, Sir, will the public see improvement from this,
[00:17:59] or will it worsen?
[00:18:02] what are your plans?
[00:18:06] that we are political people, and the PTI people were claiming
[00:18:09] that if Governor's Rule was imposed, we had no other option.
[00:18:13] Either we had to leave KP, make it a no-go
[00:18:17] area, and detach
[00:18:19] it from Pakistan, or we had to take
[00:18:23] this step so that everyone would be on the same page. They thought
[00:18:26] that if this happened, there would be a public revolution,
[00:18:30] and everyone would come out for such and such.
[00:18:34] So the biggest achievement and what people
[00:18:38] said from here and people liked it,
[00:18:42] despite so much PTI, today I am monitoring
[00:18:45] the entire KP. Since I left
[00:18:49] the PM House, I am getting facts and figures from every district.
[00:18:53] In no district did anyone come out,
[00:18:56] nor did anyone raise slogans of "Long Live" for them,
[00:19:00] nor did anyone condemn this step.
[00:19:04] Rather, everyone is distributing sweets and celebrating.
[00:19:07] It's a festive atmosphere wherever you go, people
[00:19:10] have come out and they are celebrating this as
[00:19:14] a day of salvation. Well, the first achievement
[00:19:17] was that public support is essential in everything.
[00:19:21] That's what should happen.
[00:19:25] And today, we had these two questions:
[00:19:28] what will happen on the first day after its imposition?
[00:19:31] What will be the public's reaction? How much reaction will there be?
[00:19:35] How many emotional people will come out? God forbid, there should not be such
[00:19:38] big incidents. So on the first day,
[00:19:42] there was complete success. People stood with it
[00:19:49] and their other issues
[00:19:53] were left aside, and the public
[00:19:56] supported it, celebrated it as a day
[00:20:00] of salvation. You also have reports,
[00:20:03] everyone is watching, and I myself am watching everyone,
[00:20:07] taking information from every district,
[00:20:11] and the videos, everything. So today, first of all, this happened. Now the second
[00:20:14] important point is, what will happen next? People will see
[00:20:18] if there is improvement with the imposition
[00:20:22] of Governor's Rule, or
[00:20:25] with the imposition of emergency, which is our main issue,
[00:20:29] which we want to address, that is to work for peace. So,
[00:20:33] we expect that this work was impossible
[00:20:36] before. If the provincial government,
[00:20:40] the federal government, and the Pakistan Armed Forces,
[00:20:44] who are also main stakeholders, are not on the same page and do not agree,
[00:20:47] then this work will not happen. Whatever our will,
[00:20:51] whatever our passion, now these situations will change, everyone will be on the same
[00:20:55] page, they will speak with one voice,
[00:20:58] and no message will go out
[00:21:01] that the IG has his own program,
[00:21:05] and the Chief Secretary has another, and the DC, DPO, and others have a third
[00:21:09] program. The political people who are stakeholders,
[00:21:12] their ministers have their own program. So everyone will agree on one thing. Okay.
[00:21:16] When everyone is on the same page, then, God willing,
[00:21:20] you will see changes very soon and transformation.
[00:21:24] And the Prime Minister himself will monitor this
[00:21:27] properly, he will look into it.
[00:21:30] He has also formed a committee for monitoring
[00:21:34] that you also look into it and submit daily reports. And he himself
[00:21:38] will look into it. We will bring as much improvement as possible, God willing,
[00:21:42] with everyone on the same page, the Pakistan Armed Forces
[00:21:45] and the government. Amir Muqam Sahib, the last question is, is this a long-term
[00:21:49] setup?
[00:22:55] This Governor's Rule, Articles 232 and
[00:22:58] 234 have been applied, right? And
[00:23:02] a council
[00:23:04] has also been formed. The council was formed very quickly.
[00:23:08] It seems like it was already formed, because
[00:23:12] in one, two, three hours, everyone arrived and the meeting was held.
[00:23:15] Our purpose is the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,
[00:23:19] from Bajaur to Waziristan and
[00:23:22] then the areas that are currently
[00:23:26] facing terrorism. They don't care
[00:23:29] much about this.
[00:23:32] They care about this: their first, if I tell you,
[00:23:36] one demand is that they want peace.
[00:23:39] If I go out of the house, my family will say
[00:23:43] that, will he come back alive in the evening or not? Yesterday,
[00:23:47] DG election was targeted
[00:23:57] after his funeral and he was martyred.
[00:24:01] Yes, exactly, this happened yesterday. So these incidents
[00:24:04] are happening daily with the forces,
[00:24:08] with the police, and with civilians, as you can see.
[00:24:11] These are not stopping. Now,
[00:24:14] based on this decision, the Federation
[00:24:18] has decided that we will bring peace there,
[00:24:22] as Amir Uqam Sahib was also saying. Yes,
[00:24:26] we will see in the coming days
[00:24:29] whether the council that was formed,
[00:24:33] and the Governor's Rule that was imposed there, after that
[00:24:36] things will move in that direction, because this will have to be done
[00:24:39] on a war footing. Under Article 245, the army has also come.
[00:24:42] Well, it was there before,
[00:24:45] but I am saying that the army was there before.
[00:24:49] It has been doing this for a long time. Intelligence operations are happening,
[00:24:52] and maybe now there will be a big operation.
[00:24:56] Now, I don't think these rumors are true
[00:25:00] that there will be big operations and people will be displaced. Such talks are going on,
[00:25:03] but I don't think there will be any such
[00:25:07] operation. But when
[00:25:11] these things start to be implemented, then
[00:25:15] people will know
[00:25:18] that, brother, my life and property are protected,
[00:25:22] as the Constitution says. This very Constitution,
[00:25:25] which has 332,
[00:25:28] 2324, and 234, in this very Constitution,
[00:25:31] my life and property, and your life and property,
[00:25:35] you are from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, I am also from there. My life and property, and overall Pakistan's
[00:25:39] life and property, are the responsibility of the state. The organs of the state, the government,
[00:25:43] whether federal or provincial,
[00:25:47] so now this process has started. Now we have to see
[00:25:50] in the coming days what results will come out of this.
[00:25:54] Okay, this will be a barometer to see what will happen. Ahmed Bilal Mehboob Sahib, I
[00:25:58] was also reading your post on social media. You said that after the imposition of Governor's Rule,
[00:26:01] what
[00:26:32] happens and their elected
[00:26:35] government to remove it through
[00:26:38] a democratic means, so the two
[00:26:42] well-known methods are a vote of no confidence or an election.
[00:26:45] This method is adopted only
[00:26:49] in extraordinary circumstances, therefore it is considered
[00:26:53] But since it is provided for in the Constitution,
[00:26:57] it is done because sometimes such a situation can arise
[00:27:01] or does arise when work probably cannot proceed without it.
[00:27:05] So therefore, despite being undesirable,
[00:27:08] sometimes it is acceptable
[00:27:12] as a necessary evil for a short period of
[00:27:15] time. The second
[00:27:19] thing is that this
[00:27:21] step taken is within
[00:27:25] the Constitution, it is not an unconstitutional act,
[00:27:29] so therefore,
[00:28:02] it makes the government and 234
[00:28:06] provincial assemblies dysfunctional,
[00:28:10] which doesn't happen in 232. In 232, the provincial
[00:28:14] assembly continues to function. So the government has taken this action
[00:28:18] with full force, and you rightly said that
[00:28:21] Article 245 has also been proclaimed, so now
[00:28:25] the government has all those things available on the basis of which
[00:28:29] they have to improve things, and now
[00:30:02] it was present in 232. The situation
[00:30:06] is that no limit is specified within it
[00:30:09] for how long it will run. But within it, as I mentioned earlier,
[00:30:13] the provincial assembly does not become dysfunctional,
[00:30:16] so that's why 234 was done.
[00:30:21] what changes come about within these six months and whether
[00:30:24] only 232 is used to manage
[00:30:27] the work. So this is something to watch out for,
[00:30:31] because the assembly... If during this period there is a change
[00:30:35] of heart and between the federal
[00:30:38] government and the former provincial government,
[00:30:41] there is some
[00:30:44] people that if you are restored, then the
[00:30:47] old situation should not repeat itself.
[00:30:50] So if that happens, then perhaps even with only
[00:30:53] 232, things will work out. But it remains to be seen
[00:30:57] how much improvement there is in the situation and whether reconciliation
[00:31:01] is also possible.
