Federal Minister for Parliamentary Affairs Dr. Tariq Fazal Chaudhry stated on Wednesday that the imposition of governor’s rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) is intended to eliminate terrorism and establish lasting peace in the province.
Speaking to a private television channel, Dr. Tariq Fazal Chaudhry said the governor’s rule was put in place because of what he described as weak policies of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) regarding terrorism. He noted that the government is currently taking all possible measures to completely eradicate terrorism and ensure lasting peace in the KP region.
