00:00:13point agenda
00:01:06Federal Law Minister Azam Nazir Tarar said that the emergency power was used
00:01:10for national interest and security. Such steps are not taken
00:01:13happily. Interior Minister Mohsin said that for a month they were trying to bring
00:01:17the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government on board. They were in contact with PTI leaders until 12 AM.
00:01:21If they had agreed last night, the decisions made today
00:01:24would not have happened.
00:01:53let others get beaten up, you take care of them.
00:01:55I want to ask you, sir, wear it,
00:01:59put it on, what does it mean? Is it a party
00:03:38the regrettable thing is
00:03:42have also put a stain on us politicians
00:03:52authorized by the Federation
00:04:23for this matter
00:05:14Pakistan and I am Shahzad Iqbal. After several days of
00:05:17speculations, claims, and ifs and buts, the federal government today finally
00:05:20announced the imposition of Governor's Rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
00:05:24and an emergency in 12 districts of the province, including the former PATA.
00:05:28This is the sixth time in the last 55 years that Governor's Rule
00:05:31has been imposed in a province. Meanwhile, Asif Ali Zardari,
00:05:34the president of the Pakistan Peoples Party, has earned the distinction that he
00:05:38has done so in the country, except for Sindh. We can
00:07:19still talk to you, but they didn't give any positive response.
00:07:23Today, the KP government or the Chief Minister
00:07:26didn't even bother to condemn the terrorists,
00:07:30whose children are being martyred, whose daughters have
00:07:33become orphans, whose sons have become orphans,
00:07:37who have nurtured Pakistan with their blood. They didn't express any sympathy
00:07:41for them, they didn't say a word for them, not a single word
00:07:44and the conversation that is being
00:07:47held at this time is inexpressible,
00:07:51such expletives that cannot be uttered.
00:07:54So I think that in these circumstances,
00:07:58water is now flowing over the head. We need to talk about this. In the month of Aza,
00:08:02I have presented this entire
00:08:06picture to you. I believe that
00:08:09this is never. Besides this, Federal Law Minister
00:08:12Azam Nazir Tarar, in a press conference, while talking about the legal aspects of Governor's Rule
00:08:16and emergency, said that after Governor's Rule in the province, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
00:08:20government, provincial ministers, ministerial aides, and the Advocate General
00:08:24have been deactivated. A 11-member advisory council has been established to run
00:08:27the provincial system. An order has also been issued for the deployment of the army
00:08:31to assist the provincial government under Article 245.
00:08:34When matters of Article 232 arise, we say it's an emergency,
00:08:38and when matters of 234 arise, we say it's Governor's Rule.
00:08:42But the situation was such that both these provisions
00:08:45were exercised. In the proclamation,
00:08:48the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, provincial ministers,
00:08:51advisors, aides, special advocate general, and
00:08:54many other constitutional office bearers were immediately
00:08:58deactivated. The Governor has been
00:09:04to exercise the powers of the provincial government
00:09:08that have been delegated to him, which the Constitution permits.
00:09:11And for this, through a subsequent order,
00:09:15an 11-member advisory council
00:09:19has been proposed. Under the second order,
00:09:23for the 12 districts which are almost in a state of war,
00:09:27under the Governor and the Chief Secretary, the Federal Government
00:09:30has established a secretariat that will directly
00:09:34oversee these 12 districts.
00:09:37In this, an ADC,
00:09:40a council, has been established
00:09:44that will handle all matters.
00:09:46An officer of Additional Chief Secretary level
00:09:50will serve as the Administrator. Meanwhile, Federal Interior Minister Mohsin
00:09:54Naqvi claimed in a press conference that backdoor negotiations with Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf
00:09:57were ongoing until last night. If they had agreed last night,
00:10:01this situation would not have arisen. Last night, negotiations
00:10:05were sabotaged once again, after which the government was forced
00:10:08to make this difficult decision. After terrorism in the province, whether
00:10:25it is treatment, everything was happening before the long march date was announced.
00:10:28Last night, until 12 AM, I was in contact
00:10:32with PTI leaders. I told them about the para four
00:10:35of the draft, that they should tell us the changes.
00:10:39There was no reply from them all day. If they had said yes last night,
00:10:43this would not have happened. You must ask them
00:10:47who those people were who were their masterminds
00:10:50who were sabotaging everything.
00:10:52195%
00:12:55However, in the past, during democratic eras, Governor's Rule has been imposed in all four provinces.
00:12:58The important thing is that Governor's Rule has often been imposed by Presidents
00:13:02or Prime Ministers belonging to the People's Party. If we look at the history of Pakistan from 1973
00:13:05to today, the first Governor's Rule was imposed in Balochistan
00:13:09on February 13, 1973, by Prime Minister Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto
00:13:13when he dismissed the government of National Awami Party's Chief Minister Sardar
00:13:17Ataullah Mengal and imposed Governor's Rule.
00:13:20It was during Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto's premiership that
00:13:24Governor's Rule was again
00:14:25imposed in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. We will discuss this entire situation.
00:14:29First, we will know the position of the government, and we are
00:14:32joined by State Minister for Interior, Dilawar
00:14:35Chaudhry. Thank you very much for joining, Mr. Dilawar. Today's briefing
00:14:39to you or the reports given in the cabinet stated that
00:14:43in two and a half years, terrorism incidents in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa increased
00:14:46by 195%, due to which Articles 232 and
00:14:50234 have been applied today. Their enforcement has been done. Please tell us,
00:14:54when you made this decision, what was your target in mind?
00:14:57If there is terrorism, how soon will you control it? Emergency has been imposed
00:15:01in 12 districts. When will the emergency end there? What target have you set
00:15:05for yourselves? In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Look, the target is
00:15:08only one, that terrorism must end,
00:15:12and for that, we will certainly try
00:15:15to do it as soon as possible. Today, the Interior Minister,
00:15:19when asked under similar pressure, said fully.
00:15:23It is not
00:15:37and we have not come here with
00:15:41the intention that we have to leave any
00:15:44political footprints or any
00:15:47just one
00:15:50that terrorism which has grown
00:15:53so much due to the inefficiency, incompetence and clownishness
00:15:57of the provincial government and
00:16:01they were using it for their political motives
00:16:05and they thought that this
00:20:08happened here on November 25. That is,
00:20:10such things were used, assemblies were dissolved.
00:20:14You take a step. If you take a step,
00:20:17you won't be asked whether Governor's Rule will last six months,
00:20:21a year and a half, or two years. What is the intention behind it? Look,
00:20:24I am telling you, my intention is evident from my track
00:20:28record that if it had to be imposed, many such political
00:20:32protests or events came up when it was.
00:20:36The thing
00:20:50is, there is no disagreement that the numbers you mentioned are absolutely correct.
00:20:54We are also seeing that law enforcement agencies and civilians are being martyred in it. PTI says
00:20:57that your aim is not to end terrorism, but to end us. You say that
00:21:01it is not a political issue, but please tell me that even today, the data given was for two and a half years,
00:21:05but why is it that when the emergency was imposed,
00:21:09the narrative started to be built only when two days were left in the long march? That is, on September
00:21:1227, the long march was happening. From the 25th, the narrative was built that they are facilitators of terrorists.
00:21:16In fact, I remember that even on the 24th, Mohsin Naqvi sahib, in the press conference he held,
00:21:20did not mention terrorism, but he did say that they would settle it once
00:21:24and for all. So PTI says no, they are ending us. How long has
00:21:28the same KP been formed? It's been a year, more than a year. Yes, okay.
00:21:31Multiple meetings of the Interior
00:21:35Minister are on only one point, on one
00:21:38agenda, that national elections should come, we have to
00:21:41do everything together. Everything has been offered. Everything.
00:21:45And on this, you constantly believe
00:21:48that.
00:22:20is the Chief Minister, then why wasn't the decision made earlier? That is, four months ago, three months ago,
00:22:24two months ago, if you make the decision of emergency only at the time of the long march, then this question
00:22:27will arise, right? That okay, what you are talking about security is there, but are you using it as a justification
00:22:31and the real issue is political? Look, I am telling you,
00:22:35you exhaust all options first.
00:22:38Right? First, they tried to resolve matters directly with the CM
00:22:42and the KP government. They didn't resolve.
00:22:46The backdoor talks with their leadership were.
00:22:55Believe me, Shehzad
00:22:57Sahib,
00:23:03as a political worker, I am sad because
00:23:06it failed. There are two
00:23:10that politicians
00:23:13at our level could not resolve such a matter of national interest
00:23:17at the table. And what is the second regret? Whatever
00:23:50they were asking for, whatever they wanted, more than that
00:23:54was being given in writing, and at the highest level,
00:23:58when the Prime Minister of Pakistan was briefed by the Interior
00:24:01Minister on Sunday, and he said that they had agreed
00:24:05that they would cooperate on the issue of terrorism.
00:24:09The Prime Minister said that whatever
00:24:12political space, concession, opportunity
00:24:16there is, and in which we also suffer political
00:24:20loss, take it, but take this one. And believe my words, everything
00:24:24that was the demand of any political party, but
00:24:28that these people
00:24:32that we sit together and resolve matters. This was very unfortunate that politicians sat together after a long time,
00:24:36but no result came out. But Fazlur Rehman sahib said something today in a press conference.
00:24:39I will let you hear it now, and then please answer it. Yes.
00:24:43On a conference call, Suhail Afridi Sahib, Governor Sahib,
00:24:47Shahram Khan, Asad Qaiser Sahib, I talked to them
00:24:51and I asked them to tell me in principle
00:24:54whether they are ready to end the long march or not.
00:24:58They said that if our demands are accepted,
00:25:01they are ready to end it. The Prime Minister Sahib goes to sleep early
00:25:05and wakes up early in the morning. And I went to him at six o'clock
00:25:08and I told him that if he is ready in principle
00:25:13that he will end the long march, then you also agree
00:25:17with me now that his meeting will also
00:25:21happen and Imran Khan will also be brought for treatment. Then after that, leave
00:25:24the sequence to us, we will implement both of them.
00:25:27On this, he said that okay, he also
00:25:31said that today there is a cabinet meeting, and before
00:25:35that we will reach some conclusion. This proposal also
00:25:38came that if needed, we will hold the cabinet meeting
00:25:41in the evening instead of the morning. At 10:30, Ishaq Dar sahib's
00:25:45call came and he said that the sense of the cabinet is forming
00:25:49that.
00:26:32PTI people said we have come with responsibility and full
00:26:36authority. Then he said, no, brother, you do it again.
00:26:39First day's negotiations on Saturday. The next day,
00:26:43he went to Peshawar the same evening. He went to Peshawar
00:26:46and met the Chief Minister, met his entire team. He said that
00:26:50they are on board. After that, when he came on Sunday,
00:26:54they were on board and after that, talks on political matters escalated,
00:26:57and finally a draft was prepared. The point is
00:27:01that Maulana sahib has not seen their conduct yet,
00:27:05his position is that from noon to evening, how much time passes. It seems
00:27:09that you had already made up your mind and to complete the argument, you involved Maulana sahib.
00:27:12The request is that they keep changing the goalposts. We
00:27:16assured them of this more than once, but
00:27:20ifs and buts were added. A deliberate
00:27:23atmosphere was created so that there would be no consensus.
00:27:27What did we want? That you call a terrorist a terrorist?
00:27:30You openly support us.
00:27:57that someone was married a week ago, someone was an only son, someone was
00:28:01the only brother of four sisters, and to carry these young coffins
00:28:04everyday is not easy. And this, and this
00:28:07talk, and this talk for the last two
00:28:11and a half years, this government has been continuously trying. Talal sahib, now
00:28:17or especially of security, you people have taken upon yourselves. Now,
00:28:20if peace comes, people will benefit, the province will benefit, which is very good.
00:28:24It's excellent. But if you people
00:28:27cannot control the security situation and law and order, and the
00:28:31obviously mandated government
00:29:32there is no shortage. If there is a shortage,
00:29:35then the government, the political forces, should stand behind it.
00:29:39And look, they were in power there, but they were not giving resources
00:29:43to the security forces, nor were they giving political leadership.
00:29:46And they were deliberately doing so. People did not
00:29:50come out. Information came that Suhail Afridi has been arrested, Junaid Akbar has been
00:29:53arrested. Where are these people?
00:29:56Now you will have to ask the Federation.
00:29:59Look, some people. And
00:30:33there was no tweet that you read
00:30:36this morning. This tweet
00:30:39about negotiations. If Maulana says,
00:30:42if you show,
00:30:45look, if I were sitting there,
00:30:49I would request Maulana sahib that this tweet is
00:30:52not about negotiations. This tweet is about
00:30:55unconditional cooperation on terrorism, and the point is,
