PESHAWAR (Dunya News) – A decision has been made to hold Pakistan Super League (PSL) matches in Peshawar this year.
A high-level meeting was held at the Corps Headquarters in Peshawar to review the overall security situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
During the review meeting, tributes were paid to civilians and security personnel who were martyred in terrorist attacks.
It was decided in the meeting that PSL matches will be organized in Peshawar this year.
The meeting also resolved that in Malakand Division, the provincial government’s governance model will be immediately implemented under the supervision of the provincial police and other provincial agencies.
Subsequently, this successful model will be gradually implemented in other affected districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, particularly in Khyber, Orakzai, and Kurram.
To ensure effective monitoring of all development projects in these districts and to review any military operations, a special sub-committee will be established under the leadership of the Chief Minister, which will hold monthly review meetings.
This special sub-committee will include elected representatives, the Peshawar Corps Commander, Chief Secretary, IG Police, provincial officials, and representatives of federal agencies.
The committee will not only monitor governance and development projects in these districts but will also create alternative employment opportunities to ensure sustainable income for the local population.
Additionally, the committee will make effective arrangements to address issues of temporarily displaced persons.
Through effective coordination between the federal government and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, a unified stance and complete harmony will be maintained on major issues such as terrorism.
The meeting emphasized the creation of sustainable employment opportunities to prevent extremist thinking among youth and promote positive thinking.
It was also decided that strict actions against illegal activities such as unauthorized SIM cards, explosives, and extortion will continue. Furthermore, gradual profiling of non-custom-paid vehicles will be carried out.
