PESHAWAR: Renowned Film and TV artist and former Member Punjab Assembly, Kanwal Noman here Wednesday visited the burnt building of Radio Pakistan Peshawar and strongly condemned the ransacking and putting on fire of national broadcaster during May 9 vandalism. She demanded strict action against rioters and attackers so that no one could dare to attack the national institutions and defence installations in future. Deploring the burning of four storey building of Radio Pakistan’s archives and auditorium, Kanwal said that a horde of a party on the behest of their leader had attacked Radio Pakistan Peshawar and burnt its entire building as well as Chagi Mountains model constructed in memory of May 28, 1998 nuclear explosions. She said Radio Pakistan was a national institution and its burning by horde of a party was tantamount to deprive people of entertainment, education and information. Kanwal said the real face of the political leader that deceived people of Khyber Pakthunkhwa on the name of change for nine years has been exposed before the entire nation on May 9 and demanded life- time against political elements involved in May 9 vandalism.

She said Imran Niazi’s negative politicking, victimization of oppostion leadership, provoking attitude and broken promises have led to the disintegration of Pakistan Tahrik Insaf.
She said the politics of Imran Niazi was finished in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa after PTI was divided into different groups including PTI Parliamentarians and poor governance.
Kanwal said Imran Niazi politics has been restricted only to Zaman Park Lahore due to his politics of confrontation and hooliganism.
She said the political leaders guide people and give solutions to the country’s problems rather instigate them to attack Govt institutions and defence installations after arrest in corruption case.
Kanwal said Pakistan had given us everything including jobs, identity and prestige and it was our collective responsibility to work for its economic development.
She advised youth to serve their country in respective fields with devotion instead of visiting abroad and devote energies for prosperity of Pakistan.
