\nKhyber Pakhtunkhwa spokesperson Barrister Mohammad Ali Saif on Tuesday met with the delegations from the Grand Jirga of Kurram district.
\nThe meeting focused on addressing the pressing issues faced by the region, evaluating the progress of the jirga, and discussing the ongoing peace process.
\nDuring the meeting, Barrister Saif emphasized the need for a comprehensive approach to achieve lasting peace in Kurram district, highlighting that the removal of heavy weapons from the area is a critical step.
\nHe pointed out that the elimination of anti-aircraft weapons, missiles, RPGs, and other heavy artillery is essential for long-term stability.
\nHe stressed that peace cannot be established unless bunkers are dismantled, as their presence continues to pose a significant security threat.
\nOne of the key issues discussed was the opening of the main highway, which is currently closed due to security concerns.
\nSaif made it clear that the highway could not be reopened for public use until heavy weapons are handed over and the bunkers are demolished.
\nHe reassured the jirga members that efforts were underway to address the concerns regarding the return of weapons and that these issues would be resolved soon.
\nIn addition to security concerns, Barrister Saif also assured the delegations that the provincial government is committed to providing essential supplies to the people of Kurram district.
\nHe announced that a large consignment of life-saving medicines had been sent to the region by helicopter, and the government had allocated 2000 metric tons of wheat from its reserves to address food shortages. This gesture aims to alleviate the suffering of the people and ensure their basic needs are met.
\nSaif reiterated that establishing permanent peace in the region remains a top priority for the provincial government.
\nHe urged the Grand Jirga to play a pivotal role in finding a permanent and sustainable solution to the ongoing issues.
\nHe reminded the members that previous efforts, such as the Murree Agreement, had been undertaken to resolve the region\u2019s problems, but this time the focus must be on a lasting resolution that guarantees peace and security for future generations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
