KP governor says chief minister must engage in reasoned discourse
PESHAWAR (Dunya News) – Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor Faisal Karim Kundi challenged Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur to a debate on Sunday, as the tug of war between the two continues.
Interacting with media, Kundi said that Gandapur could debate with him on any channel of his choice.
Kundi said that Gandapur was talking like this to secure a job, adding that the chief minister must engage in reasoned discourse.
He said he would like to tell the KP chief minister that dancing horses don't win races.
The governor also questioned Gandapur why his father was forcibly retired from the army.
Nevertheless, Kundi invited Gandapur once again to sit together for the progress of the province.
Federal Minister Amir Muqam, meanwhile, said that the KP chief minister was inciting the public for an event similar to May 9 riots.
Addressing a PML-N meeting in Swat, Muqam questioned whether Gandapur had come into power to agitate the public.
“There is disappointment and distress among the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. They are deprived of facilities,” he said.
The minister said that Gandapur should focus on the progress of the province and emulate Punjab's progress, where new projects were initiated daily.
