PPP leader slams security withdrawal
July 15, 2021
KHAR: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader and former Member National Assembly (MNA) Syed Akhunzada Chattan on Wednesday criticised the government for withdrawing security from the tribal elders.
Speaking at a press conference, he said the tribal people had rendered matchless sacrifices for the restoration of peace.
The PPP leader said they would hold the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chief minister and the inspector general of the police responsible if anything happened to the tribal elders from whom security details had been withdrawn.
He also condemned federal Minister for Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan Affairs Ali Amin Gandapur for his uncalled-for remarks against PPP’s founding chairman and former prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto.
PESHAWAR: The Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader and former lawmaker Akhunzada Chattan said while addressing a press conference in Bajaur on Tuesday that objection has been raised on Radio Shumal because it runs local news and whenever its reporters visit the field, people start criticising government performance and also raise questions about alleged irregularities in ongoing projects.
The PPP leader was reacting to closure of four radio channels in Bajaur by the district administration few days ago. Flanked by the staff of Radio Shumal, Akhunzada Chattan insisted that his channel is legal by all means and he possesses documentary proof in this regard. He said his channel is running its broadcasts since 2012.
