KHYBER AGENCY: Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan said on Wednesday said the
Afghan government was levelling baseless allegations against Pakistan. Nisar said Pakistan and
Afghanistan have embedded in the bonds of culture and the people living at the both side have cordial relations for decades, ad
ding that the government of
Afghanistan without any solid proofs was hurling allegations at Pakistan.
He said this while talking to reporters at Michni checkpoint in Landi Kotal tehsil of Khyber Agency on his visit to Torkham bordering area. He said Operation Zarb-e-Azb has been launched against terrorists, ad
ding that anti-state elements were either killed or fled away to the neighbouring country
where they were planning to enter Pakistan. He said that terrorists we
re crossing into Pakistan by showing that they are
Afghan nationals; therefore border management was inevitable to be implemented. To stop the entry of anti-state elements concrete steps have been taken. He added that proper security system along with Pak-Afghan border has also been installed. He claimed that the government had achieved 90 percent targets in war on terrorism and extremism, ad
ding that the rema
ining 10 percent would also be gained with the support of people. “The terrorism was decreasing in Pakistan but unfortunately it was increasing at global level as there are no safe havens of militants’ factions in the country after the successful launch of Zarb-e-Azb,” he maintained.
