Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi on Wednesday called for the inclusion of the provincial government in the formulation of counter-terrorism policies. Addressing a convocation at Shaheed Benazir Bhutto Women University in Peshawar, CM Afridi said: “If [you] really want to eliminate terrorism, then come and formulate the policy with us.” His remarks came a day after Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director-General Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry came down hard on the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leadership in KP, blaming it for the rising terrorism.
