Amidst a surge in terrorist attacks in the region, Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa welcomed Interior Minister Syed Mohsin Raza Naqvi, indicating a rare collaboration between political rivals. They pledged to tackle militancy and improve law enforcement, particularly after a recent suicide attack targeting Chinese nationals. The federal government aims to enhance coordination between central and provincial law enforcement agencies, as discussed during a meeting chaired by the interior minister. The meeting also focused on bolstering the Counter-Terrorism Department’s capabilities and extending support for their operations. Both officials condemned the recent attack and emphasized the priority of maintaining law and order in the province.
