KP Recommends 50 More Names for Civil Awards

The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) government has recommended an additional 50 names for Pakistan's civil and gallantry awards, including the provincial police chief and Peshawar's Capital City Police Officer. The recommendations were sent to the federal government following criticism over the province's representation in this year's civil awards.

KP's Cabinet Wing proposed 28 individuals for gallantry awards and 22 for civil awards, with Inspector General of KP Police Zulfiqar Hameed recommended for Hilal-i-Shujaat and Nishan-i-Imtiaz. Several police and security personnel, including CCPO Peshawar Dr Mian Saeed Ahmed and DIG Headquarters Abbas Majid Khan Marwat, have also been recommended for Tamgha-i-Shujaat and lower-tier awards.

The final awards will be decided by the federal government after undergoing scrutiny and approval processes.
