Entire nation stands with govt to exterminate terrorism: Politicians

PESHAWAR, (MILLAT/APP): The entire nation stands with the government
and security forces in their just struggle for exterminating the menace
of terrorism and are fully supporting their policies and actions for maintaining durable peace in the country.
The deadly attacks at Sehwan, Lahore and Peshawar where dozens of innocent people martyred and over hundred injured reminded that
terrorists has no regards for humanity and religion and time has come to take decisive action against them.
This was the main gist of the comments obtained from the leaders of various political entities of Khyber Pakthunkhwa who were unanimous on defeating terrorism with iron hands.
While commenting on the barbaric terrorist attack at Sehwan Sharif
last evening, ANP leader and former Minister Wajid Ali Khan said killing
of innocent people was highly condemnable act and time has come that all provinces should implement NAP in letter and spirit to wipe out terrorism completely.
“The terrorist attack at Sehwan Sharif and Lahore reminded that terrorism was still existed in the country, which needed a collective struggle and successful implementation of NAP by all the provinces,” he explained.
The recent tragic episode in Sehwan Sharif, Lahore, Hayatabad and Mohmand Agency had reminded us to address the core factors that were
leading to the spread of terrorism, he said.
He underlined the need for revisiting of foreign policy to meet the present day challenges in effective manner.
PML-N parliamentary leader in KP assembly Sardar Aurganzib Nalota
said all political forces were united against terrorism and had agreed
on NAP as it provided comprehensive guidelines to defeat terrorism.
He said work on implementation of NAP was successfully underway and
it was producing very positive results.
Soon after Lahore blast, he said, Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif had cancelled all his official engagements in Karachi and visited Lahore
by presiding over a high level meeting and expressed sympathies with
victims families including DIG Traffic Capt Retd Ahmed Mobin Shaheed.
Before the present elected Government, he said, the incidents of terrorism, target killing and kidnapping for ransom were a routine matter and law and order situation was very disappointing.
The PML-N Government has not only reinforced the government writ but also ensured the dignified repatriation of millions of TDPs, he explained.
Sardar Aurganzib observed the successful actions and operations of the Government and law enforcement agencies under National Action Plan (NAP) have isolated terrorists by reducing space for them to reorganize and operate freely.
He said now people could go everywhere even they can visit FATA at
night since the law and order situation has improved and it was largely acknowledged by the opposition parties.
Former President Pakistan Peoples Party KP and Ex-Senior Minister Rahimdad Khan said attacks on innocent people at Sehwan reflected the barbaric and deadly mindset of terrorists that they had no regards for humanity and religion.
