Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif chairs security review meeting in Peshawar
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif chaired an apex committee meeting in Peshawar on Thursday to review the security situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Meeting attendees and purpose
State media reported that the gathering included KP Governor Faisal Karim Kundi, federal ministers, and senior military leadership. The committee will examine the overall security situation and measures taken to combat terrorism in the province.
Context of emergency rule
This visit marks the premier's first trip to the region since the Centre imposed governor's rule on October 11. Parliament endorsed these decisions last week following disagreements between the centre and the provincial government over counterterrorism efforts.
Governor assurances for stability
Earlier, Governor Kundi assured Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi that he would enforce all federal government policies. He stated that the new setup allows tackling terrorism effectively while working with security forces for peace.
