ISLAMABAD: Editor-in-Chief Pakistan Group of Newspapers and Chairman Roze News SK Niazi, while talking in his renowned talk show Sachi Baat, said terrorism had reached its peak in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, but he thought the situation had improved and things might improve further. He said the government had done a great job, the Governor of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was a capable man, and the government was very happy. He said the situation in KP was very bad and all situations needed to be fixed. The Army had elevated Pakistan’s name in the world. Maulana Fazlur Rehman was not being harsh. There were many issues in both KP and Balochistan, and economic issues needed to be solved. Real estate work was over, and poverty had increased a lot.
Huma Akhtar Chughtai said people outside were trying to connect the matter with October 12 and that such things were meant to mislead people. She said it was very important and all limits had been crossed. She questioned what had been done in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and said these people were not cooperating.
Gul Asghar Khan said PTI was reaping what it had sown for years and that every time its members came, they attacked the federal capital. He questioned whether such actions could take place in the capital of another country and described the development as a great job. Sweets had been distributed. Maryam Nawaz was also working in the province, and he said the other side had also had two and a half years. He said the law of the jungle was becoming established in KP and questioned whether Nawaz Sharif and President Zardari were not in jail. What happened was in accordance with the Constitution and law. Things were not good, and the situation was not good in the 12 districts where an emergency had been declared. Running the affairs of the empire was the job of mature people. He said it was not right to make Sohail Afridi the Chief Minister. PML-N members were their allies. They were not happy with the imposition of emergency, and there had been zero coordination in KP.
Abid Zuberi said democracy had been damaged. Governor’s rule could be imposed within the Constitution. He compared the situation with Balochistan, where the situation was also very bad. A case was pending against Amjad Shah in the Peshawar High Court concerning allegations that his degree was fake. Degree verification was conducted.
