PESHAWAR
\nPakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Provincial Information Secretary Adeel Iqbal has expressed concern over the resurgence of terrorism in the country, questioning the government\u2019s lack of seriousness in addressing the issue.
\nSpeaking at a press conference at the Peshawar Press Club (PPC), Iqbal stated that both civilians and security forces are making sacrifices, yet the government remains distracted. \u201cUntil peace is restored, investment will not come to the country. Instead of focusing on fake governments, efforts should be directed toward eradicating terrorism,\u201d he said.
\nIqbal criticized the federal government, claiming that a regime without public mandate cannot be expected to care for the people. He also rebuked Defense Minister Khawaja Asif for blaming PTI for terrorism, urging him to focus on counterterrorism measures. \u201cDue to the federal government\u2019s negligence, Pakistan ranks second globally in terrorism. What concrete steps have they taken to control it?\u201d he asked.
\nHe alleged that the government is preoccupied with targeting PTI, while key security challenges remain unaddressed. \u201cBushra Bibi is in jail just because she is the wife of PTI\u2019s founding chairman,\u201d he claimed, adding that the 26th Amendment was passed through force.
\nIqbal announced that PTI would launch protests after Eid, following the instructions of its founding chairman. He questioned border security management and criticized the police for being left to fight terrorism alone. \u201cThe authorities responsible for national security must fulfill their duty and eliminate terrorism. <\/p>\n
Conferences are not the solution\u2014decisive action is needed,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
