[00:00:07] Commander Sahib, thank you.
[00:00:10] That you invited
[00:00:13] us, and the best thing is that
[00:00:17] today is the first day that I can proudly say
[00:00:21] that the Federal Government and the Provincial Government
[00:00:24] are on the same page.
[00:00:27] In the last two and a half years, we have done a great deal.
[00:00:33] And the most difficult
[00:00:37] task was for those people who were fighting this war,
[00:00:40] and when they looked at the backend, they saw that
[00:00:44] no one even attended funerals here.
[00:00:47] And I remember that we would arrive
[00:00:51] from Islamabad, and
[00:00:53] The context in which the people who lived here would not come to those funerals.
[00:00:56] So I will salute the courage
[00:00:58] of those people more because
[00:01:02] they fought this war against terrorists
[00:01:05] even without that backend support.
[00:01:08] When a government,
[00:01:12] whose job it was to lead this war against terrorism,
[00:01:16] did not do so, they continued
[00:01:19] to give sacrifices
[00:01:22] and bowed their heads only for the purpose of not compromising
[00:01:26] in any way. But no war, no matter
[00:01:30] how many resources you bring, no matter what you do,
[00:01:34] until the government there leads it, that war
[00:01:38] cannot be won. You can look at any war in the world,
[00:01:42] this war cannot be such that I
[00:01:46] say that I am against terrorism but after that
[00:01:49] no other sentence comes after it. We saw this in these two and a half years.
[00:01:53] میں دیکھا
[00:01:54] And
[00:01:57] not once, not twice, but dozens of times, we
[00:02:00] requested these people, "Please come with us."
[00:02:05] together in any way, Our
[00:02:07] especially the issue of terrorism Governor of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Faisal Karim Kundi, and Federal
[00:02:10] Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, chaired
[00:02:13] and to keep the people involved a meeting of the Provincial Apex Committee. On this occasion, Federal Interior Minister Mohsin
[00:02:16] Naqvi addressed. He said that if the government
[00:02:19] leads against terrorism, the war can be won. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,
[00:02:23] in the war against terrorism, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government
[00:02:27] and the Federation are on the same page.
[00:02:38] resist sharing but it is true
[00:03:00] You will see a difference when the government leads it.
[00:03:03] These very people will give you results. These
[00:03:05] people
[00:03:09] have not come from the sky or changed. They are all the same people,
[00:03:12] and you will see that
[00:03:16] when
[00:03:19] a government leads it, how good the results will be.
[00:03:22] You people
[00:03:24] must not panic, especially all the
[00:03:28] advisors and all the other people. There will be ups and downs.
[00:03:32] It's not that in one day, you can say that from morning
[00:03:35] there will be something completely different. Even the most difficult times
[00:03:39] will come, but we all, you,
[00:03:42] Governor Sahib, the Corps, the Police,
[00:03:45] the Administration, the Federal Government, we have to collectively confront them
[00:03:48] and defeat them. If we are united, there is no
[00:03:52] way they can defeat us. They do not have that much strength.
[00:03:56] The only thing that was missing is what we will try to fulfill,
[00:04:00] that we will stand with you. Insha'Allah, you will see that
[00:04:04] Allah will give the results. Our intentions are pure. Allah will
[00:04:07] surely give us good results.
[00:04:11] I will once again request
[00:04:15] you all that
[00:04:18] Instead we should go back to this five-district plan, where
[00:04:21] in the first phase, in six months, in five districts,
[00:04:25] the police and our other institutions should
[00:04:28] be Governor Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Faisal Karim Kundi and
[00:04:31] Federal Interior Minister Muhammad Naqvi chaired the provincial Apex Committee meeting.
[00:04:35] On this occasion, Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi while addressing said
[00:04:40] do. that if the government leads against terrorism, the war can be won. We will win the war against terrorists.
[00:04:44] Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police is continuously sacrificing
[00:04:48] in the war against terrorism. Addressing, Mohsin Naqvi
[00:04:51] further stated that in the past, but I am very
[00:04:54] hopeful that, Inshallah, we will all together
[00:04:58] tackle the five districts.
[00:05:12] with courage. When you cannot protect them,
[00:05:16] when you cannot provide them with any facilities there, when you
[00:05:19] tell a police officer to go there and your opponent
[00:05:23] has modern weapons and you only have an old
[00:05:27] pistol, how can you tell them to fight them? I
[00:05:31] appreciate Governor Sahib, the way he and the Corps Commander Sahib
[00:05:34] are thinking about the police. I think I will also appreciate their
[00:05:37] work. If this happens, I think it will be a turning point for the police.
[00:05:41] May Allah make them successful in what they are thinking.
[00:05:45] کو کامیاب کرے۔
[00:05:47] One more thing, in this, I would like to tell the people of KP
[00:05:51] that Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi and Governor
[00:05:55] Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Faisal Karim Kundi chaired the provincial Apex
[00:05:58] Committee meeting. In this meeting, Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi
[00:06:02] stated that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police is continuously
[00:06:05] sacrificing in the war against terrorism. He said that if the provincial
[00:06:09] government leads, the war against terrorism in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa will be won.
[00:06:27] that people want peace, people want to get rid of this terrorism.
[00:06:31] The message from the people is clear to us. Now, how we deliver
[00:06:34] it is up to you and your team and all of us together.
[00:06:38] This is the most important thing, but I will appreciate
[00:06:41] the public.
[00:07:12] I will appreciate all of them for handling the 24 hours in the way they did.
[00:07:16] Alhamdulillah, this province is peaceful, its people are peaceful,
[00:07:20] and Insha'Allah, the terrorism
[00:07:22] that
[00:07:25] Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi and Governor Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Faisal Karim
[00:07:29] Kundi chaired the provincial Apex Committee meeting. Speaking at the meeting,
[00:07:33] Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi said that the police and other law enforcement
[00:07:36] agencies will be strengthened. The federal government will fulfill
[00:07:40] all its responsibilities for peace and order
[00:07:42] in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Mohsin Naqvi also said in his address that
[00:07:46] the federal and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa governments are now on the same page. I hope that
[00:07:50] you people will take it further than other provinces, Insha'Allah,
[00:07:53] and I have great hope from Allah that
[00:08:02] Kundi and Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi chaired the provincial Apex
[00:08:06] Committee meeting. Speaking at the Apex Committee meeting,
[00:08:10] Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi said that
[00:08:16] if the provincial government leads, we will be able to win the war against terrorism
[00:08:20] in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi said here in his address that the PTI
[00:08:23] government was repeatedly requested to become part of the war against
[00:08:27] terrorism in the province. The federal government will fulfill all its responsibilities for peace and order in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
[00:08:31] On this occasion, Governor Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Faisal Karim
[00:08:35] Kundi also expressed his views. He said that it is our responsibility to manage
[00:08:39] the affairs of the province in the best possible way. For the restoration of peace in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,
[00:08:42] we are on the same page. The capabilities of law enforcement agencies will be enhanced.
[00:08:46] Our measures against terrorism will be clearly visible.
[00:08:50] He said that if there is peace in the province, resources and opportunities
[00:08:54] can be utilized.
[00:08:55] گے۔
[00:08:59] This was the latest news from PT News. For more news and updates, stay
[00:09:03] with us.
[00:09:03] رہیے۔
[00:12:25] because the province and the center were not working
[00:12:32] was a big concern in Islamabad and other
[00:12:35] places that
[00:12:39] terrorists are roaming freely, they are
[00:12:42] moving around but at least
[00:12:46] no one is questioning them, just as federal ministers
[00:12:50] used to sit here and give statements that this is the B team of so-and-so.
[00:12:54] ٹیم ہے
[00:12:58] This was bound to happen,
[00:13:01] that emergency was imposed,
[00:13:04] Governor's rule was also imposed. This emergency is not in 12
[00:13:07] province, and Governor's rule is also
[00:13:11] in the entire province. For 12 districts, a separate system is being created,
[00:13:15] that a secretariat will be formed for the 12 districts
[00:13:17] that were most affected
[00:13:20] by terrorism and
[00:13:23] they
[00:14:32] that if anyone attempts such a thing, we will take
[00:14:35] them into preventive detention, into protective
[00:14:38] custody. That is, a very clear message
[00:14:42] that due to the reason, due to the disturbance,
[00:14:45] internal disturbance of the
[00:14:49] has been imposed and Governor's rule has been imposed. At least,
[00:14:52] law and order should not be disturbed.
[00:16:08] There are multiple things in it, ji, hearts and minds. What you are talking about response
[00:16:11] from these are the factors that have to look
[00:16:15] at the internal factors of terrorism, but before that, it is very important
[00:16:19] for the state to exist, in which people
[00:16:22] live, the hearts and minds of those people are won, they are saved
[00:16:26] from terrorism, they are protected.
[00:16:30] I am talking about is that at this time there is an
[00:16:34] external application in which
[00:17:37] to fight, its trinity that needs to be established, you cannot fight a war
[00:17:41] without it. Government, people, and
[00:17:44] army. So it is the government's job to lead
[00:17:47] with political ownership and clarity
[00:17:51] with the army so that without their support, you cannot win the war.
[00:17:54] This structure was not being established. When the war structure itself is not
[00:17:58] being established, hearts and minds are a later matter, that you will win
[00:18:02] them. Those factors are present in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
[00:18:05] as well.
[00:19:37] Many times we saw that the PPP government would resist a little
[00:19:41] when we talked about the extension of 245 and such things, but still the federation would go,
[00:19:45] there would be talks, and it would be implemented.
[00:19:48] There would be extensions
[00:19:51] for the deployment of Rangers. I am talking in that context.
[00:19:54] So the point is that many times at the provincial level or
[00:19:58] at a smaller level, things are not understood about what dangers the federation faces,
[00:20:02] so we have to stand with the federation. Without the federation, units are useless.
[00:20:05] Without units, the federation is useless.
[00:20:50] This is still the responsibility of politics, whether you are in the government or you are not in
[00:20:54] the government, own this war. These things should be struggled
[00:20:57] here, a good political struggle should be done, with hard work.
[00:21:01] Sir, they are not owning that war, they are owning the operation.
[00:21:05] In such a background, in such
[00:21:08] a backdrop, to convince the public
[00:21:11] that this is being done for them, so that the public takes ownership,
[00:21:15] so that there is no resentment in the public,
[00:21:18] would that be possible?
[00:22:50] Will the current Federal Government
[00:22:53] and our establishment be under intense scrutiny? All
[00:22:57] eyes are focused on them now because you have taken a step. As General Sahib is saying,
[00:23:01] it depends on how they deliver now. There will be a lot of pressure on them,
[00:23:04] and you know, now, as they say, the countdown
[00:23:08] will start: "Look, you had to do this, right? You have done it. Now let's see how
[00:23:11] you deliver." It will be watched with a critical
[00:23:14] eye.
[00:23:17] General Sahib gave a good example of Sindh, and in Karachi,
[00:23:21] there used to be these problems that those who have
[00:23:25] power first
[00:23:28] it. Now, if we apply the same formula to KP,
[00:23:31] its quantum is also greater, and its approach
[00:23:35] is also different. For example,
[00:23:38] the government here, although it had been
[00:23:42] ruling this province for 13 years,
[00:23:44] but as these
[00:23:47] Taliban, Afghan Taliban, came, and then
[00:23:51] the TTP or other terrorist groups.
[00:23:54] Look, Doctor Sahiba, there is no doubt that the TTP
[00:23:58] used to get regular support from there. Then it happened that
[00:24:01] Afghan citizens also started coming, who used to attack in Pakistan,
[00:24:04] and now so much so that the Afghan Taliban
[00:24:08] government started sending drones, and their
[00:24:12] Afghan Taliban government spokesmen openly
[00:24:15] tell Pakistan that they will teach us a lesson, they threaten
[00:24:19] us. Now in this context, the provincial
[00:24:23] government was
[00:24:25] trying to pursue its own policy.
[00:24:28] Chief Minister Sohail Afridi Sahib repeatedly used to say
[00:24:32] that we do not accept their policy,
[00:24:35] we do not accept a policy made in closed rooms,
[00:24:39] the Federal Government should follow our policy. Whereas
[00:24:42] what is the policy? It is the National Plan of Action 2014,
[00:24:46] which their leader Khan Sahib himself signed.
[00:24:50] Another NPA was made, a National Plan of
[00:24:53] Action, which was made in their own government. This is the policy, right, that needs
[00:24:57] to be moved forward. You said something very good, Doctor Sahiba, that
[00:25:01] the ownership of the war on terror, the actions
[00:25:04] being taken against the TTP.
[00:25:08] of this government, which is gone
[00:25:11] and is now inactive, this government should have propagated
[00:25:14] this narrative that these are enemies, these are enemies
[00:25:18] of Pakistan, these are enemies of the people. An enemy of peace
[00:25:22] is also an enemy of a common person, but this narrative
[00:25:25] was not propagated, instead it was said that those drones, who knows what they
[00:25:30] If you take action, if you operate, what will you do?
[00:25:34] When people in Tirah used to migrate in winters every year,
[00:25:38] it was said that people are being displaced.
[00:25:42] You will remember, they used to say that we have kept
[00:25:45] four billion rupees for their resettlement, although later when news
[00:25:48] came out.
[00:26:04] of calling terrorism
[00:26:06] an environment was created there against it,
[00:26:10] saying that no, this is something against the people
[00:26:14] of this province, or that it was said
[00:26:17] as if the police were
[00:26:21] fighting against the people, and attacks on the police started,
[00:26:25] attacks on the army started. Look, in Bannu,
[00:26:28] in Kohat, Dera Ismail Khan, Tank, which
[00:26:32] checkpost is there, which police station is there where
[00:26:36] terrorist attacks have not happened? That's right, in Kohat, just
[00:26:40] on Friday, you remember, one day people were offering Friday prayers,
[00:26:43] they came and crashed a car full of explosives,
[00:26:47] how many people were martyred? Instead
[00:26:51] of condemning terrorism and terrorists,
[00:26:54] another narrative emerged from there. The biggest problem was this,
[00:26:58] and the lack of good governance in its place is a big issue.
[00:27:02] For example, in Islamabad, PIMS Hospital
[00:27:05] is there, half of KP comes here, and I
[00:27:08] always say that if in Mardan,
[00:27:12] Swabi, Mansehra, Abbottabad, Haripur,
[00:27:16] or other adjoining districts, if there were good hospitals,
[00:27:19] they would not become referral cases, they would not come to PIMS. Now, with the
[00:27:23] fire that broke out or any other unfortunate incident,
[00:27:26] we, you, and I also go to PIMS,
[00:27:30] most of the population from there comes, so good
[00:27:34] governance, then FATA merged, districts
[00:27:37] came here in settled districts, the civil work that
[00:27:40] should have been done there, I am saying I gave the reference of 13 years
[00:27:44] because the civil administration that should have been
[00:27:47] there in every walk of life could not happen.
[00:27:51] They say that they are not getting funds. If, suppose, funds
[00:27:54] are not being received, sit here and fight the case.
[00:27:58] Instead of on the streets, sit here.
[00:28:01] That's why I was saying that now all eyes will
[00:28:05] be on the Federal Government and the establishment. Now, it is very important to deliver,
[00:28:09] and if they deliver, then the case of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf
[00:28:12] will appear to be losing, their narrative will lose.
[00:28:16] But God forbid, if this setup cannot deliver,
[00:28:19] just as it could not deliver, then their narratives will be strengthened.
[00:28:32] how long do you think this will stay in force
[00:28:36] because there are a lot of discussions about how long
[00:28:40] this will be. Will it get an extension after six months? How long
[00:28:44] will this remain in effect? What do you
[00:28:47] see? Look, it's a policy
[00:28:51] shift, it's a huge shift. Its results
[00:28:54] will not be visible immediately. Right now,
[00:28:57] unfortunately, my assessment is that there will be a slight surge
[00:29:00] in terrorism because they will try to prove
[00:29:04] that since you removed the government, terrorism has increased,
[00:29:08] it will be a failure. Unfortunately, this will be a slight temporary surge,
[00:29:11] and this is the same thing about which
[00:29:14] there isn't much debate that the doubts that are created
[00:29:18] about co-existence,
[00:29:19] unfortunately, they discredit the entire organization,
[00:29:23] the party, to be very honest. So there will be a slight surge,
[00:29:27] but it is very difficult to give a timeframe for it. The reason for this is that the war
[00:29:31] of non-state actors is
[00:30:32] Kundi and Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi chaired the meeting.
[00:30:36] The Federal and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa governments are now on the same page.
[00:30:39] Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police is continuously sacrificing in the war against terrorism.
[00:30:43] The PTI government was repeatedly requested to become part of the war against
[00:30:47] terrorism in the province. The people of the province now want peace.
[00:30:50] The federal government will fulfill all its responsibilities for peace
[00:30:54] in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The Federation is with you. Results will be
[00:30:58] before you soon. Interior Minister.
