ISLAMABAD, Nov 10 (APP): Federal Minister for Kashmir Affairs, Gilgit-Baltistan and SAFRON, and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) President Engr Amir Muqam on Monday lashed out at the KP Chief Minister over his “immature and irresponsible” remarks against state institutions, demanding a public apology to the nation, the security forces, and families of martyrs who sacrificed their lives for peace.
Speaking at a ceremony where renowned KP businessman Qazi Waqas joined the PML-N, Muqam said such statements undermine the credibility of state institutions and the morale of families who lost loved ones in the fight against terrorism.
“He should realise the situation that he was not addressing to the political gathering, the incumbent of CM offered several responsibilities and any statements and remarks caused the widespread impact,” he said.
While remembering the scarifies of innocent civilians in different parts of the province before the security forces, he said there are several political figures who lost their two to three beloved ones in different attacks.
He said, “It is due to the scarifies of security forces the sovereignty and peace maintained yet, contrary to the past turmoil like situation particularly in KP province.”
He also questioned whether the CM could guarantee the safety and integrity of Pakistan for even “two days” if the security forces presence was withdrawn from the borders and former tribal regions.
Criticizing the policies of the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) policies regarding the developments and welfare of the people, he noted that they are ruling the province for more than twelve years, accusing them of relying solely on social media and empty slogan, while failing to deliver tangible results to the public who continuously gave them a mandate.
