00:00:00If these matters are settled for them, then further talks can be advanced with Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
00:00:04So we are waiting for Maulana to respond. The federal cabinet meeting is still
00:00:07ongoing and has not ended. At
00:00:1111:35 AM, Prime Minister of Pakistan, Shahbaz Sharif, his statement will be
00:00:15broadcast on official TV, which he delivered to the federal cabinet,
00:00:19okay? Ayaz, stay with us. Waqar, now at 11:35, the Prime Minister's speech
00:00:22will be broadcast, which he delivered to the federal cabinet, and we are waiting for Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman
00:00:26to ask the KP government and tell us what your understanding is that
00:00:30Barrister Gohar Asad Kaiser and
00:00:32the issues, they are with him, others, with whom Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman is in contact, and with CN KP, where do you
00:00:36think there might be an obstacle?
00:00:39Look, the cabinet members are trying, and according to my information, what I have
00:00:42come to know is that Ishaq Dar has also had a telephonic
00:00:46contact with Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman, and during this meeting,
00:00:50all the details regarding it have been conveyed to him. As we mentioned earlier,
00:00:54the federal government will try until
00:00:57the last moment to somehow
00:01:00ensure that democracy, politics, negotiations, and reconciliation
00:01:04get a chance. But as we also mentioned earlier, what has been happening
00:01:07specifically in the last one and a half to two weeks, a report of two years
00:01:11was presented to you today in the federal cabinet regarding
00:01:15the law and order situation in the past two years, how drone attacks have increased
00:01:18there.
00:01:23as a mediator, and we will move forward Terrorist incidents have increased by 174%, and the law and order situation there is very
00:01:28our history, our relations dire. Besides, national
00:01:31and state matters, and security matters, are at stake. This was briefed today,
00:01:35and this briefing, a similar briefing,
00:01:39was given by Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Raqvi to the opposition when negotiations
00:01:43began. At that time, Asad Kaiser was also there, Barrister Gohar was also
00:01:47there. The Opposition Leader in the Senate
00:01:50was also present there, along with other responsible individuals.
00:01:54They had committed on the first day that they would bring a response from the provincial government,
00:01:58and they would try to get Chief Minister Sohail Afridi to personally attend tomorrow's meeting,
00:02:02but afterwards, when he said that he would not come, the Speaker of the National Assembly
00:02:05was presiding over the meeting and these negotiations.
00:02:09He said that if the Chief Minister cannot come,
00:02:13as Barrister Gohar said send a representative, send a minister,
00:02:13Pakistan will so that someone can respond to the federal government's concerns,
00:02:17and what it is saying. Unfortunately,
00:02:20Today, during the federal cabinet on the second day either,
00:02:24and none of the questions regarding national security were answered.
00:02:27Later, when the matter progressed, the federal
00:02:31government only made one demand: that they are ready to accept their three demands,
00:02:35of do or die, but first, they should call off the long march,
00:02:38then the matter will proceed. The people sitting there agreed
00:02:41to this, and the matter moved forward. After that,
00:02:45when they contacted again, a draft was prepared. This draft
00:02:49was a unanimous draft of the negotiating committee. This entire committee
00:02:52vetted the draft. After that, Mohsin Naqvi took it to President
00:02:56Asif Ali Zardari, who approved it.
00:03:26Until the federal government fulfills their demands, the provincial leadership
00:03:29is bringing up these things. Our sources have told us
00:03:33that their stance is that the long
00:03:36with sincerity, march will continue, and they will continue it in the same way. Nothing
00:03:40makes any difference to them, and they believe that as long as the federal government
00:03:44does not fulfill their demands,
00:03:48Cabinet sources say they will continue the Islamabad bars and cannot call it off. So
00:03:52the provincial government is steadfast in its position.
00:03:55Now we are waiting for Maulana's call, what response
00:03:59the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leadership or the opposition gives
00:04:02because people from the opposition were also involved in this negotiation process,
00:04:06but the provincial leadership is adamant that they
00:04:09holding on to one thing: are not at all ready to call off
00:04:11fully expresses solidarity the long march. They are continuing
00:04:13with Saudi Arabia it as they were, and they want,
00:04:15they believe that until
00:04:18and sisters, the federal government fulfills their demands, in every way. they will continue
00:04:21it in the same way, and their stance
00:04:25regarding governor's rule is that whatever the federal
00:04:29government does, it doesn't matter to them. They have to keep
00:04:32continuing this long march.
00:04:34especially Therefore, let's see what response Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman
00:04:37gets from which leadership, but because the federal government
00:04:41has shown patience and tolerance, and the information we have received so far
00:04:45is that we are reporting to you the human situation of the federal cabinet,
00:04:48so many people also said that
00:04:51why not give one last chance, talk,
00:04:55ask them to review their decision
00:04:58and resolve all these matters, and support the federal government's policies
00:05:02in the war against terrorism. These are policies that the federal government
00:05:07Fazal-ur-Rehman is in contact with the PTI did not make. The National Action Plan was formed in 2014,
00:05:09and at that time, all the leaders, including the founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf,
00:05:13were also included in it. All these things were
00:05:17unanimously approved by the political leadership of that time.
00:05:21This is not the decision of a single individual, and the demands
00:05:24of that time, considering the security situation in the country,
00:05:28now the same things are being repeated. The
00:05:31areas of the South, which are alongside ex-FATA, along with
00:05:35the four settled areas we had, terrorism has reached such a peak
00:05:38there that it probably wasn't even there in 2014. It was only in FATA,
00:05:42but the matters in the settled areas are such that the police cannot
00:05:45go out, police stations are being attacked, police vans are being attacked,
00:05:49police personnel are being attacked, ordinary people
00:05:53are being attacked, agencies are being targeted.
00:05:56So that's why this big meeting was held today, and within it,
00:06:00a unanimous decision was made, but still, the federal government,
00:06:03the federal cabinet, has decided once again so that all
00:06:07political leadership remains aware, and they are also kept on board so that such a big
00:06:11decision is made so that tomorrow no one can say that the federal government
00:06:15did this for some of its own purposes. But all things
00:06:18are clear. Reports from all security agencies, all law enforcement agencies
00:06:22regarding security are absolutely clear.
00:06:25On all national televisions and in newspapers, the data
00:06:29of the last two years has been published about how many deaths have occurred, how many people
00:06:33have been martyred, how many security personnel have been martyred, and how
00:06:36the lives of ordinary people have been made miserable. And if
00:06:40things continue like this, it is possible that these southern areas will
00:06:44become a no-go area, and the people there will be forced to migrate
00:06:48from there, where people have their livelihood, their properties
00:06:51there. That's why the federal government has decided that immediately,
00:06:55before the situation reaches this low, immediate actions under the National Action Plan
00:06:58should be taken, effective actions should be taken. People should be kept on board,
00:07:02the local people there should also be kept on board, they should be trusted, they should be told
00:07:06who is making their lives miserable. They should join hands with them against
00:07:10these terrorists, against these enemies.
00:07:36that these matters should not be prolonged further and resolved today, even though it's Sunday. This could have happened yesterday or
00:07:40Monday. The government believes that this matter
00:07:44has become so serious that it's a matter
00:07:47that it has to be done in every situation and brought
00:07:51to some logical conclusion so that the situation does not worsen
00:07:54further, not only for the people there, but also internationally, a very wrong message is being conveyed
00:07:58that when these attacks happen daily, people are martyred, bombings happen,
00:08:02then internationally, which Pakistan has revived with great difficulty
00:08:05by gaining control over the security situation worldwide, these things will get worse.
00:08:09That's why this step has been taken, and this step has been advanced. A last
00:08:13chance has been given to them, but so far, the provincial leadership of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf
00:08:17is adamant in its stubbornness. They believe that the long march is perhaps
00:08:21the solution to this, and they are carrying out the long march. They were in Bardaan, now
00:08:24they have to come towards Swabi. They don't care whether terrorism is happening
00:08:28or not. That's why the federal government believes that considering
00:08:31their stubbornness, this decision has been
00:08:34made. But still, because it is a political
00:08:38government, political people, political people always talk,
00:08:41so they are giving one more chance through Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman so that
00:08:45they can be talked to, they can be told why not reconsider
00:08:48their decision once again, that if terrorism is to be eliminated,
00:08:52which is also in their interest, along with the federal government,
00:08:56the provincial government also benefits. There will be peace and order,
00:08:59businesses will flourish, people will live happily, then the provincial government
00:09:03will earn a good name because all those areas directly belong to the provincial government.
00:09:07The federal government comes later. So if the provincial government succeeds in countering all these things,
00:09:10then this is a good step for the provincial
00:09:14government. But so far, the provincial
00:09:17leadership of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf is on the container,
00:09:21that we have to do the long march, we have to stage a sit-in
00:09:24in Islamabad, we have to move forward.
00:09:27It doesn't matter to us what decision the government
00:09:31makes. Now, regarding this, the government itself is also concerned about
00:09:35how much more time should be given and how it should be handled. Why not
00:09:38implement this talk of extreme steps, this talk of the last option?
00:09:42Why not execute it?
00:09:46Now we are waiting for Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman. This meeting was supposed
00:09:50to start at 9:30 AM and end at 10:45 AM. It is almost
00:09:5311:40 AM now, and the federal cabinet meeting
00:09:56is still ongoing. People are still sitting,
00:10:00waiting. Now Ishaq Dar will contact Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman
00:10:04again. What answer he gives, after that, the federal cabinet
00:10:08will rise. Whatever decision is made, a decision has been made, but a chance has been given.
00:10:37his close associates say that Maulana has been awake since yesterday
00:10:40and has been in constant contact throughout the night. Even now, when the federal
00:10:44cabinet meeting started and then he was contacted, he then contacted
00:10:48the senior leadership of PTI, but he has not yet
00:10:52received any response. He says that
00:10:56it is his wish that somehow these matters are resolved through understanding, reconciliation, and
00:11:00dialogue, and these problems are solved. And this is the last effort. Let's see what
00:11:03result it yields.
00:11:05ہے
00:11:09Yes, it is the last effort, let's see what result this effort yields.
00:11:13Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has been given another chance by the federal cabinet.
00:11:17We are informing you about the latest situation. The federal cabinet
00:11:21had decided on an emergency and governor's rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. According to sources,
00:11:25the federal cabinet had decided to impose an emergency and governor's rule
00:11:28under Article 232 and 234.
00:11:32Before that, yesterday, in the meeting at the President's House, it was agreed
00:11:35to impose an emergency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The federal cabinet was taken into
00:11:39confidence on the issue of governor's rule and emergency in KP.
00:11:43It was also decided in the meeting of the President's House that separate sessions of both
00:11:46houses of Parliament would be called on October 13.
00:11:49Meanwhile, this morning at 6 AM, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif met
00:11:53the head of JUI-F
00:11:55once again. Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman informed the Prime Minister about the talks
00:11:59with PTI leadership and opposition last night. Last night, at the invitation
00:12:03of Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman met
00:12:07him. In yesterday's meeting, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif told Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman
00:12:11that the government wants to resolve matters through understanding.
00:12:14After meeting the Prime Minister, Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman met
00:12:17Chairman PTI, Barrister Gohar, and Asad Kaiser. After meeting PTI leaders, Maulana
00:12:21last night suggested to Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif
00:12:25to hold talks with PTI. Meanwhile, last night, President
00:12:28Asif Ali Zardari, Governor KP Faisal Karim Kundi, and Interior
00:12:32Minister Mohsin Naqvi held an important meeting. Faisal Karim
00:12:35Kundi and Mohsin Naqvi briefed the President about the deteriorating
00:12:39law and order situation in the country and especially in KP.
00:12:43meeting, a report from sensitive agencies
00:12:46on the situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was discussed.
00:12:50The federal cabinet meeting has been ongoing since 9:30 AM today.
00:12:54ہے۔
00:13:25and inform the government. If the matter does not progress, the federal government can impose
00:13:29governor's rule and emergency in KP for an indefinite period.
00:13:32The advice of cabinet decisions will be sent to President Zardari,
00:13:36after which, on presidential order, Governor Faisal Karim Kundi will take
00:13:40charge of the province as Chief Executive. The federal
00:13:43cabinet has decided to impose an emergency and governor's rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
00:13:47According to sources, the federal cabinet has decided to impose
00:13:50emergency and governor's rule under Article 232 and 234.
00:13:54The federal cabinet meeting is ongoing under the chairmanship of Prime Minister
00:13:57Shahbaz Sharif. The cabinet has expressed deep concern over the terrorism
00:14:00situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's deliberate
00:14:04detachment from the war against terrorism instead of eliminating
00:14:08terrorism has been termed alarming.
00:14:13that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa should support the federal government
00:14:16in the fight against terrorism. During the cabinet meeting,
00:14:20Deputy Prime Minister Senator Muhammad Ishaq Dar
00:14:23contacted Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman. And the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government
00:14:27should support the federal government in the fight against terrorism. This last chance
00:14:31has been provided to the provincial leadership of PTI. Today, the cabinet
00:14:35meeting has made a decision, but one last chance has been given to the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government
00:14:38to restore peace and order in the province and support the federal
00:14:42government. The provincial government should postpone its meetings and
00:14:46rallies. The federal
00:14:49cabinet has decided to impose an emergency and governor's rule in KP. According to
00:14:53sources, the federal cabinet
00:15:25through the federal cabinet meeting that happened today. Yes,
00:15:28absolutely, regarding this, Maulana
00:15:32leadership, and these contacts are happening
00:15:36through Amir Dogar, Barrister Gohar, and Asad Kaiser. Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman,
00:15:39when he met Prime Minister of Pakistan, Shahbaz Sharif,
00:15:43before that, these PTI leaders had also contacted Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman,
00:15:47and Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman consulted with them. When
00:15:50Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman's meeting with the Prime Minister concluded
00:15:54last night, then Asad Kaiser and Barrister Gohar met
00:15:58Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman again, and during this, the PTI
00:16:02leadership told Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman that he should talk,
00:16:06he should try to resolve
00:16:10and they authorize him that if he makes any effort
00:16:13to resolve political matters in the country, it will be a positive
00:16:17effort, so he should take a step forward. Meanwhile, according to our sources,
00:16:21there were some concerns from PTI members that the founder
00:16:24has given the authority for negotiations and decisions to Mahmood Khan Achakzai
00:16:28and Allama Nasir Abbas, so then in the meeting
00:16:32of the political and core committee last night, these points also
00:16:35came up. It was said by the members that instead of the authority to negotiate,
00:16:39if Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman talks on his own, then we will
00:16:43call it positive. From PTI,
00:16:46yesterday, it was announced that if Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman
00:16:49plays any role, goes towards any political solution,
00:16:53then we will consider it positive, and the majority of members said
00:16:57that Maulana should come forward
00:17:01with his mediation. And meanwhile, let us tell you that today Mahmood
00:17:04Khan Achakzai is coming to Islamabad, and this evening
00:17:25In this regard, we talked to PTI members about what points were discussed,
00:17:29and they told Geo News that the situation
00:17:32in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, PTI members have also been arrested.
00:17:36So in such a situation, we don't want any decision
00:17:39like governor's rule or emergency.
00:17:43A political solution should be found, but they
00:17:46said that informally,
00:17:50on record yesterday, governor's rule has been imposed
00:17:53informally in a way, because our members are being
00:17:56arrested. This morning when we asked them about the progress,
00:18:00they said that they are still unaware of the decisions,
00:18:04and I will also tell you one more thing that
00:18:08Salman Akram Raja, the Secretary General, has not been informed about
00:18:11contacts with Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman or the government.
00:18:15On the other hand, the committee members are also
00:18:18unaware of the complete decisions and contacts.
00:18:22On the third hand, Asad Kaiser, Barrister Gohar, and
00:18:25Amir Dogar are making contacts and hoping for positive progress.
00:18:29So they are making contacts, but still, a key
00:18:33point here is that since the founder of PTI has given the authority for negotiations
00:18:36and talks to the leaders of the opposition, meaning the Opposition
00:18:40Leader of the National Assembly and the Opposition Leader of the Senate, until they
00:18:44appear in this political process, we will not see a final
00:18:47political decision from the opposition because Sohail Afridi,
00:18:51Allama Nasir Abbas, and Mahmood Khan Achakzai are three such
00:18:54leaders from the opposition who have the authority
00:18:58to make decisions. So Barrister Gohar and Asad Kaiser's role
00:19:02in conveying messages is being praised within the party,
00:19:06but who has the authority to make decisions?
00:19:38You are requested
00:19:41to attend this meeting. For some time,
00:19:45we have not been able to hold a cabinet meeting.
00:19:48There are two reasons for this. I had to go to America
00:19:52for the UN session, where I was
00:19:56busy, and then there were other engagements
00:19:59as well.
00:20:02So during this period, some important events took place, which I want
00:20:05to bring to your attention.
00:20:09First of all, thank God, our IMF
00:20:12Staff Level Agreement has now
00:20:15been reached, and God willing, it is hoped
00:20:19that this year
00:20:22itself,
00:20:24a tranche of 1.2 billion dollars will arrive,
00:20:28God willing. I was in New York,
00:20:31and I met them there,
00:20:34and I want to share that with you.
00:20:38The MD of Pakistan,
00:20:42in these circumstances,
00:20:45the efforts that your team
00:20:48has made.
00:22:50The reforms that have been made have given us great hope and
00:22:54strength that if this journey continues in this way,
00:22:57then God willing,
00:23:03become an attractive place.
00:23:06گی۔
00:23:09Similarly, I believe that the rest of our
00:23:12diplomacy
00:23:15in the international arena is also important in this regard.
00:23:18حوالے سے بھی۔
00:23:50We are grateful that you played a big role in the ceasefire.
00:23:53In this regard, the current situation is before us.
00:23:57Unfortunately, matters worsened
00:24:00again and escalated.
00:24:03From the Strait of Hormuz, they went to Bab-el-Mandeb.
00:24:07There, the situation worsened even more.
00:24:10So even now, Pakistan is playing its role
00:24:13with full effort and sincerity.
00:24:17The rest is in the hands of Allah.
00:24:20Other brotherly countries are also contributing
00:24:24fully
00:24:26and today I want to say
00:24:30once again
00:24:35that in this entire diplomacy, Field Marshal
00:24:38Syed Asim Munir has a pivotal role. There is no doubt
00:24:41about it. Absolutely.
00:24:44Certainly, the Deputy Prime Minister has made great efforts. Mohsin
00:24:48Naqvi is sitting, he spoke about Iran. So this is a
00:24:52wonderful team effort, and may Allah
00:24:55accept it.
00:24:59All decisions are in His hands. The day before yesterday, I inaugurated
00:25:02the first technology park built by the federal government,
00:25:05and its name is Danis
00:25:08Technology Park. Its construction
00:25:12began during the previous government.
00:25:15A soft loan was given by the Korean
00:25:19government, and it was treated in such a way
00:25:22that even strangers could not imagine it,
00:25:26meaning it became a tale of destruction,
00:25:29it was ruins when we came into government.
00:25:32I don't want to indulge in self-praise.
00:25:35The entire team,
00:25:38the concerned ministers, secretaries,
00:25:42including Madam Shehza
00:25:45Khawaja, played a great role, and her secretary, Mr. Jewa.
00:25:57Everyone worked hard on it, but I think
00:26:00in my life, many big projects came
00:26:04that troubled me greatly, but this was one of those
00:26:08projects that caused a lot of difficulty and pain, but thank God,
00:26:11it is now complete, and
00:26:15God willing, we will now replicate it throughout
00:26:18Pakistan. I have told Ahsan Iqbal that he should get ready
00:26:22now, we will build similar ones in Karachi, Lahore, Peshawar,
00:26:26Quetta, and other places, and in this way,
00:26:29not thousands, not millions, but crores of young people
00:27:02I will not go into detail today. Two
00:27:06or three important points to mention.
00:27:08Saudi Arabia is an extremely
00:27:12brotherly country of Pakistan.
00:27:14And an extremely
00:27:18trustworthy friend. Just
00:27:20as China is an extremely trustworthy friend of Pakistan,
00:27:24similarly Saudi Arabia is an extremely trustworthy friend
00:27:27of Pakistan. Throughout
00:27:31with them have been extremely affectionate,
00:27:34brotherly, and some of you, senior friends
00:27:38sitting here, are witnesses to this
00:27:41that how at various
00:27:44times, the Saudi Royal family,
00:27:47the Saudi government, the Saudi Imam
00:27:50has always given a helping hand to Pakistan.
00:27:54We, with full caution, played our role
00:27:57as a mediator with Iran. Iran is our
00:28:00brotherly country, our neighboring country,
00:28:03and believe me, the sincerity
00:28:07and relationships with Iran have grown
00:28:11in these months during this government.
00:28:14I don't remember any other time before
00:28:18this. And this journey
00:28:21continues. The Deputy
00:28:24PM keeps talking, Mr. Iraq talks
00:28:27to Mohsin Naqvi, his counterpart, they go. Field Marshal
00:28:30himself made visits, he remains in contact. So our
00:28:34only goal is to establish peace in the region.
00:28:37But
00:28:40after the Strait of Hormuz, now the bloody game being played
00:28:44in Bab-el-Mandeb is extremely regrettable,
00:28:48and for this, Pakistan's relations with Saudi
00:28:51Arabia, as I mentioned, are
00:28:54centuries-old, not 80 years, but hundreds of years
00:28:57old, based on brotherhood and religion.
00:29:00کے مذہب کے
00:30:02is the home for Medina Munawwarah, which Muslim would not sacrifice his life for it?
00:30:06So that's why I think I will say again today from this
00:30:09forum that Pakistan
00:30:17It stands with its Saudi brothers
00:30:21and Pakistan will not tolerate
00:30:24any kind of aggression under any circumstances.
00:30:27Our agreements also demand this,
00:30:31and our bonds of brotherhood also
00:30:35demand this, and the sanctity
00:30:38of Medina Munawwarah and Mecca
00:30:42Mukarramah, its protection is the responsibility
00:30:45of billions of Muslims worldwide. So I think
00:30:48in this regard, this is a red line. We all
00:30:52pray to Allah that this matter is resolved peacefully,
00:30:55otherwise Pakistan.
