Russian Interior [00:01:34] Minister [00:01:35] Suhail Afridi Sahib, Vladimir Tsyplakov arrived in Pakistan for a four-day visit. [00:01:38] Upon his arrival in Islamabad, Minister of State for Interior [00:01:42] Talal Chaudhry warmly welcomed the esteemed guest.

[00:01:55] On the instructions of [00:02:35] Prime Minister Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif, Interior Minister Mohsin [00:02:38] Naqvi handed over 10 newly purchased armored vehicles [00:02:42] of Islamabad Police to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police. [00:02:45] The armored vehicles have been provided to make ongoing operations [00:02:49] against terrorism in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa more effective and stronger. [00:02:53] The war against terrorism is our collective responsibility, [00:02:57] says the government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The police are the target, [00:03:00] said Interior Minister Mohsin [00:03:02] Naqvi. [00:03:07] There will be no negotiations with those who speak against the state. [00:03:11] Consultation on the plan of action for resolving the province's issues and establishing peace and order [00:03:15] in the Apex Committee meeting. Elimination of terrorism, improvement of [00:03:18] police and CTD, development of health, education and infrastructure [00:03:23] but the question is, are top priorities. after this? There was no Free education for children of martyrs, [00:03:26] police salaries to be equal to other provinces, and [00:03:29] announcement to solve the problems of young doctors. Governor Khyber [00:03:33] Pakhtunkhwa Faisal Karim Kundi's advisors on information and interior [00:03:37] hold a press conference in Peshawar. Day of salvation for the people of [00:03:40] Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on the imposition [00:03:42] of emergency. [00:03:47] Welcome the federal government's decision. Very happy with the imposition [00:03:51] of emergency by the federation. PTI leadership does not feel [00:03:54] governmental responsibilities. The federation imposed [00:03:58] emergency in the province and freed [00:04:02] things associated with us from PTI. Public opinion. [00:04:04] Fabricated and [00:04:10] misleading claims on social media regarding insecurity in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. [00:04:13] AI-generated images, old [00:04:18] we should together eliminate this terrorism footage and irrelevant videos are being shared with false captions. [00:04:21] Claims of linking factory fires, load shedding [00:04:24] protests and evening videos to the situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. [00:04:27] Afghan and some political [00:04:31] accounts are also fueling this campaign. The public should [00:04:35] avoid spreading social media content without verification. [00:04:38] Fact [00:04:39] check. [00:04:44] Afghan Taliban regime has so far failed to stop attacks [00:04:48] against Pakistan. The Afghan government should fulfill its [00:04:51] counter-terrorism promises. It is the responsibility [00:04:55] of the Afghan Taliban regime to stop the use of Afghan [00:04:59] soil against Pakistan. [00:05:14] The solution to the Yemen crisis is not military. Iran offers to facilitate [00:05:18] direct talks between Riyadh and Sana'a. Saudi and Iranian Foreign Ministers [00:05:21] held a telephonic conversation. Prince Faisal bin Farhan and Sayed Abbas [00:05:25] Sarrakchi discussed the latest situation in the region and the increase [00:05:29] in tension. The Saudi Foreign Minister and his [00:05:32] British counterpart also held a telephonic conversation. They discussed joint [00:05:36] efforts to deal with regional tension, reduce its security and economic [00:05:40] impacts. Pakistan's [00:05:43] T20 [00:07:12] Shehzad Humayun and student pilot Captain Abdul Samad [00:07:16] are included. The accident occurred in the Quetta area [00:07:19] during flight due to a sudden technical fault in the aircraft. [00:07:22] This is the statement of ISPR. [00:07:25] And the military and political leadership has expressed deep [00:07:29] sorrow over the martyrdom of the loyal sons of Pakistan Army. President Asif Ali [00:07:33] Zardari, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif have also issued [00:07:37] condolence messages. This is certainly a sad incident. [00:07:40] were present, but [00:08:12] they also endangered their lives, and they started with these reforms. This is repeatedly [00:08:16] discussed that in the areas where the security situation was very [00:08:20] alarming, they started from there and put people's lives at [00:08:23] stake, and they were roaming around with them. The biggest thing is [00:08:27] that the people living there, the public, are now tired of [00:08:31] this terrorism. They wanted their real problems to be solved [00:08:34] and their lives to be made [00:08:38] easier. In view of all these things, [00:08:41] we then saw that the round of negotiations continued, [00:08:43] and then there was another round in which Maulana Fazlur Rehman Sahib was also [00:08:47] included, and it was hoped that [00:08:51] perhaps this round of negotiations would be successful, but the [00:08:55] stubbornness shown by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and when the [00:08:58] issue of terrorism came up, that obviously this province has to be [00:09:02] freed from terrorism, an operation will also have to be carried out for it, [00:09:06] people will have to be freed from it, but on this, the people of Pakistan [00:09:09] Tehreek-e-Insaf are not [00:09:21] and there is a very big challenge there that needs to be dealt with. In principle, it should [00:09:25] have been that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf itself would have stepped forward and said that [00:09:30] and things would run properly, but unfortunately that did not [00:09:34] happen, and after that, emergency and Governor's rule [00:09:37] were imposed. Governor [00:09:41] KP. [00:10:12] But there is no need to worry, if things are on track, then gradually [00:10:16] it will be focused on. The Apex Committee meeting was held [00:10:20] and overall, [00:10:23] regarding this, regarding its implementation or [00:10:27] Governor's rule there, overall, what [00:10:31] are the government's thoughts at this time, [00:10:36] there, at least at this stage, there is not much [00:10:39] resistance because people knew that our real [00:10:42] problems are not being addressed by the provincial government. Today, in Islamabad, [00:10:46] during a function, when [00:10:50] the Deputy Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar Sahib [00:10:53] were present, they [00:11:55] are determined against terrorism and they want terrorism to [00:11:59] end now, and regarding yesterday, he said that if [00:12:02] seen in the scenario of terrorism, a pleasant change has come, [00:12:06] the people there have welcomed it, and now, God willing, [00:12:09] terrorism will end, the real problems will be solved. [00:12:13] What exactly did he say on this occasion, [00:12:17] you will listen. The people of Khyber [00:12:19] Pakhtunkhwa are very, very [00:12:23] firm. [00:13:25] It is their right. They have been strengthened that now to fight this scourge of terrorism, [00:13:28] we have the army with us, we have institutions, and now [00:13:32] serious steps will be taken. Yes. [00:13:35] No, there have been quite important [00:13:39] changes in the last two or three days in Khyber [00:13:43] Pakhtunkhwa. Due to increasing terrorism and deteriorating [00:13:46] law and order situation, there was a demand for [00:13:50] emergency and governor's rule there. Yes, but [00:13:52] we saw that PTI's [00:14:11] stubbornness, obstinacy and its traditional [00:14:15] politics of ego prevented the matter [00:14:19] from reaching its conclusion. And the agreement that [00:14:22] was prepared. So this is the war that is still [00:15:52] going on, and to deal with it, efforts were being made [00:15:56] that the provincial government should lead it. The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa [00:16:00] government, instead of leading it, its Chief Minister [00:16:03] himself climbed on the container and brought the workers [00:16:07] to the streets. The public is standing helpless, the public does not even have basic facilities. [00:16:11] Now, with the significant change in the situation, you can see that [00:16:14] the reaction that was being expressed there, the fears that [00:16:18] were being expressed, no such reaction came forward, and the province [00:16:22] has returned to peace and [00:16:25] order. Now today was the first day of [00:16:29] Governor's rule there, and in the Apex Committee meeting that was held, [00:16:33] as you said, the Core Commander was also present. [00:17:37] A separate plan is being made for the development of the annexed districts, [00:17:41] so that not only terrorism is eliminated there, but also [00:17:45] the development process. At the same time, the Federal Government [00:17:48] has come forward on several fronts, and not only are [00:17:52] the basic problems of the people being addressed, but also the real [00:17:56] issue, the war against terrorism, to bring it to its logical [00:17:59] conclusion, whatever the Federal [00:18:03] Government has here, whatever resources it has, [00:18:06] today [00:20:38] And the most important thing is that we have to strengthen ourselves [00:20:41] in these 12 districts, we have to strengthen our law enforcement, [00:20:45] we will work together, Safi Sahib. Muhammad. [00:20:49] But the government had no other [00:21:23] choice, and this was bound to happen, and PTI probably [00:21:26] wanted to weaken democracy in this country, [00:21:30] weaken the democratic system and parliamentary system, [00:21:33] but along with this, [00:21:37] had been enduring PTI's government there for 13 [00:21:40] years, which was imposed on them, which was imposed [00:21:44] on them, a cult had hypnotized those people in such [00:21:48] a way and tried to advance [00:21:53] their specific agenda, as a result of which [00:21:56] the province was completely devastated, and the wave [00:21:59] of hatred and [00:22:02] extremism was not [00:22:05] only visible in the mountains [00:22:08] and the northern and southern districts [00:22:12] of KP from the terrorists, but there was also tension [00:22:16] in political attitudes. And talks of hatred [00:22:20] for each other were very common. Just the day before yesterday, [00:22:25] who is currently in government custody [00:22:29] due to the law and order situation, [00:22:32] he was taken into custody, so he was saying [00:22:36] that this Pakistani flag, which is our green [00:22:39] crescent flag, in the coming days, [00:22:43] no one will be left to salute it. So maybe no one will be left [00:22:47] in PTI, but as [00:23:01] it has remained high there and will remain high, [00:23:04] God willing, there is no shortage of people who salute [00:23:08] this flag, but also those who sacrifice their lives for this [00:23:11] flag and this land in Pashtun land, and the rest [00:23:15] of the country, thank God, this bouquet [00:23:18] of ours, the federation's [00:23:21] will come together for this beloved homeland and are always ready [00:23:25] to give their lives. I will come to your [00:23:28] question. Today, for the first time, I saw that in Governor [00:23:32] House, the advisory council meeting was held [00:23:35] under the chairmanship of Governor Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Faisal Kundi [00:23:38] and Mohsin Naqvi Sahib, who is the Federal Interior Minister [00:23:42] of Pakistan, under their joint chairmanship, [00:23:45] in that meeting, we saw that on one side, [00:23:49] the [00:24:03] and on the issues of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the real issues, for the first [00:24:07] time we saw that Peshawar city witnessed this [00:24:10] scene that for peace and [00:24:14] order and the real problems of the people in Khyber [00:24:17] Pakhtunkhwa, the federation and the province appeared [00:24:21] on the same page. For me, I said in the beginning that the [00:24:25] exercise of Articles 232 and 234 [00:24:28] is a debatable discussion in its [00:24:31] own right, whether it should have happened or not, [00:24:34] but in my opinion, there was no other way left, but [00:24:38] in this whole scenario, [00:24:41] this provocation that had been created by PTI [00:24:45] for the last two, three, four, five days, or rather, more than a week. [00:24:49] Now, these pledges [00:24:55] that have been made, these plans that have been made, [00:24:59] Hafiz Sahib explained to you in great detail that the police [00:25:02] are short of personnel. This is the height of [00:25:06] helplessness. I would only like to add one point in this [00:25:09] matter, that the police personnel who were [00:25:12] martyred during duty, this [00:25:16] incompetent government, the ruling party [00:25:30] to fill them is a later matter, but the vacancies of [00:25:33] these martyrs, whose children have become completely orphans, [00:25:37] their other dependants have [00:25:40] not even been recruited. So this was the condition of this party [00:25:44] and this government regarding security. [00:25:47] What Mohsin Naqvi Sahib is saying, what Faisal Karim Kundi [00:25:51] is saying, the Prime Minister's [00:25:54] words that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa will be given attention and [00:25:57] peace and order will be prioritized [00:26:00] are before us. So we would [00:26:04] like to see this now, and this is a big challenge for [00:26:08] the federation as well, that the roots of terrorism that have become very [00:26:11] strong there for 40 and 45 years have now become very [00:26:15] big trees, so uprooting them [00:26:18] and bringing life back to normal [00:26:22] there will be very difficult, but if there is [00:26:25] will, then I can say with full confidence that [00:26:29] Khyber. So it is hoped [00:26:41] this setup will definitely be able to deliver [00:26:45] and the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa will get some relief [00:26:49] for some time from the turmoil of mischief and provocation [00:26:52] that was created there for some years. Okay, Safi [00:26:56] Sahib said that this should have happened. [00:27:00] 23234. And God willing, our journey is towards light, [00:28:02] and I also want to say that wars [00:28:06] are not fought by armies, [00:28:09] wars are fought by nations, and our nation, [00:28:13] our people, are standing shoulder to shoulder with our army, our police, and our FC, [00:28:17] and God willing, they will continue to stand. Dr. Farooq [00:28:21] Sahib, I will come to you, sir, how do you see this change? What's your [00:28:25] take on it, and looking at the priorities we are seeing [00:28:28] there now, what do you think, God willing, we will win [00:28:31] this war against terror, while the people [00:28:35] there are also very fed up at this time? We saw this when we talk, [00:28:39] in fact, in the press conference yesterday, it was also said [00:28:43] that girls cannot go to school there, students cannot go, [00:28:47] they drop out, their education remains incomplete, and other [00:28:50] problems, public problems, are present in their place, [00:28:54] but terrorism is out of control there at this time. No, look, [00:28:58] the priorities have been told by the Governor, and [00:29:02] you have depicted the situation that is happening in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, [00:29:05] and you left one question incomplete. He did not leave it [00:29:09] incomplete, he said that the real thing is, we leave it, [00:29:13] I am talking about Safi Sahib. Safi Sahib said, look, [00:29:16] this is not desirable, [00:29:19] and now what to do [00:29:22] other way, [00:29:25] if schools are not working, [00:29:29] after evening, citizens [00:29:35] and if someone goes to a funeral of his brother and [00:29:39] is shot at the funeral, I am talking about the DG Election [00:29:42] Commission. Absolutely, right? [00:29:45] And similarly, if your armed forces, your police, [00:29:49] your citizens, your officers, bureaucrats, [00:29:53] everyone becomes a target, and your economy starts [00:29:57] bleeding, then what will happen? So now the [00:30:00] question is, why are these [00:30:04] this one party, that it is destroying your [00:30:08] economy, destroying your peace and order, destroying your [00:30:12] governance? I mean, they have completely [00:30:15] ruined governance. [00:30:18] We are talking about this time when Ali Amin Gandapur [00:30:22] came, or after him Suhail Afridi came. Before that, [00:30:26] from 2018 to 2022, [00:30:29] what happened? You surrendered Kashmir [00:30:33] under an understanding. You announced [00:30:36] that we would dismantle [00:30:40] our nuclear program. You talked about compromising [00:30:44] your constitution. You summarized [00:30:48] CPEC and made [00:30:51] it controversial and stopped work on it. [00:30:54] What kind of things did you not do?
