  "summary": "Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi said the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government backed out of agreed counterterrorism commitments during final talks. According to Naqvi, the provincial government had agreed to sign a written security deal and submit an implementation plan within 72 hours, but then withdrew its commitments.\n\nThe proposed deal included several key points, such as reconsidering the Police Act, preventing terrorists from operating freely, condemning banned groups like the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan, and supporting the national policy on Afghan refugees. The agreement also covered substantial funding for counterterrorism operations, full provincial ownership of counterterrorism measures, and stronger cooperation with the armed forces.\n\nKhyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi shared a seven-point draft of demands, which he said were constitutional and legal. The talks between the government and opposition failed to break the deadlock over the PTI's long march.",
