Kundi stresses political dialogue for peace in KP

PESHAWAR - Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor Faisal Karim Kundi emphasized on Sunday that a protest march against Islamabad is not suitable, urging all political factions to sit together and develop a united approach to achieve peace in the province. Kundi made these remarks during an interview with journalists following the inauguration of a private hospital in Hayatabad.

The governor highlighted that the law and order situation was poor in both Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, but maintained that Balochistan was leading the fight against terrorism. He criticized the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) for providing a second date for the protest march at a time when the province's law and order situation was precarious.

Kundi stressed that the KP government did not oppose terrorism originating from Afghanistan nor had it passed any resolution against the issue in the assembly, urging joint efforts beyond political divisions for peace, development, and solving public concerns.
