Balochistan Home and Tribal Affairs Minister for Mir Ziaullah Langau on Tuesday said steps were being taken to address issues pertaining to fencing at border areas through bilateral cooperation of Afghan government in light of the wishes of tribal elders.
He expressed these views while chairing a high-level meeting to review measures related to fencing and other matters of Pak-Afghan border in Killa Abdullah district’s Chaman area.
Langau said the fences were being installed on Pak-Afghan border under contribution of the federal government in order to maintain law and order in the province and to curb terrorism. “The provincial government has taken serious steps to resolve the settlement issues in the border area.”
