Minister of State for Interior Tallal Chaudhry on Monday slammed the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government for inadequate efforts to combat terrorism, particularly pointing out flaws in its leadership, resources and use of authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Addressing media in Islamabad, Chaudhry recalled that KP Chief Minister Sohail Afridi held a \u201cvery lengthy\u201d press conference in Dera Ismail Khan<\/a> in the wake of Saturday\u2019s deadly suicide blast<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhy did they not condemn Afghanistan? Why do you have a soft attitude on Afghanistan? Why do you deliberately employ such ambiguity and demeanour, and do not openly condemn or name the real enemy or the source of these proxies?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the outset of his press conference, Chaudhry noted that terrorist \u201cproxies are financed by our eastern border and their hideouts are on the western border\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He emphasised that Pakistan had employed \u201cevery way\u201d to convey its concerns to Kabul, including dialogue, dossiers and international forums, but to no avail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Minister of State for Interior Tallal Chaudhry on Monday slammed the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government for inadequate efforts to combat terrorism, particularly pointing out flaws in..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16721,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16720","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pakistan"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1-1.png",800,927,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1-1-150x150.png",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1-1-259x300.png",259,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1-1-768x890.png",768,890,true],"large":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1-1.png",800,927,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1-1.png",800,927,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1-1.png",800,927,false]},"author_info":{"info":["admin"]},"category_info":"Pakistan<\/a>","tag_info":"Pakistan","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16720","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=16720"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16720\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16722,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16720\/revisions\/16722"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/16721"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=16720"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=16720"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=16720"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
