KP CM takes exception of ‘misrepresentation' of his statement
PESHAWAR: Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Ali Amin Khan Gandapur has expressed strong concern over the Indian government's misrepresentation of his recent statement, describing it as a deliberate attempt to deflect attention from India's longstanding involvement in sponsoring terrorism and destabilizing peace in the region. In his detailed policy statement issued here in this regard on Friday, he condemned Indian longstanding involvement in terrorism across Pakistan and the entire region, stating that India has consistently played a destabilizing role, both directly and through covert means. 'As ex-Minister for Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan Affairs, I am fully aware of the ground realities,' he said. 'I am writing to the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and will personally appear before it to expose what India has done, and continues to do, in Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan', he added. The chief minister said that India's involvement in orchestrating terrorism in Pakistan is undeniable, particularly highlighting India's network of over a hundred consulates in Afghanistan — which, according to him, were never meant for diplomacy or trade but served as operational hubs to orchestrate terrorism within Pakistan. He vowed to expose India's role in fuelling instability, especially in Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, saying: 'I will go there personally and tell the whole world what India has done. I will reveal how deeply your government is involved in terrorism in Pakistan. Our entire party, led by Imran Khan, and the Pakistani nation, are united in defending our country.' He further said that India orchestrated attacks on Chinese nationals, strategic infrastructure, and other assets in Pakistan, saying that all such incidents are ultimately linked to Indian interests.

PARTLY FACETIOUS: Prosecution not always necessarily weak
'When one door opens and the other closes, you are probably in jail.' 'Hey, I hope that is not a backhanded comment on recent judicial decisions by the anti-terrorist court…' 'No it's not backhanded –it's like the International Monetary Fund front loaded or handed if you will comment.' 'But protesters cannot go around destroying public property, I mean that requires some reprisal if you will.' 'Right, but the prosecution was very weak and failed to provide any evidence against…..' 'As weak as when the Deputy Prime Minister got exonerated from the court after hand writing a 40-page affidavit implicating his benefactor, his counterpart Samdhi, his….' 'Shut up anyway, I urge all Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaaf convicts to see the glass as half full.' 'From jail?!' 'Yes, look at the terms: free three meals a day are provided, you do not have to pay for electricity, you do not need gas whose price is as high as electricity now, free laundry service….' 'Don't be facetious.' 'You have to deal with whatever life doles out to you, and you know what: nine times out of ten you are responsible for where you are at.' 'I agree with that, did you hear the line: what do you call poetry written in jail: Prose and Cons!' 'I prefer what do you call it when a prisoner takes his own mug shot? The answer is a cellfie.' 'I have another: why are inmates so angry all the time? Cause they have bad cell service.' 'Anyway, there are some very famous celebrities who are currently in our jails – though I am not sure whether they have access to VIP jails or not.' 'Talk of our obsession with elite capture. I mean VIP jails! Are there such jails anywhere else in the world! Anyway did you hear the one about what do you call a celebrity in jail? A celebrity.' 'Not funny. But I heard VIP cells come with attached inmates who provide service associated with domestic-helpers… you know, clean up and….' 'I would pass on that! I mean convicted murderers!!' 'I reckon that those who committed non-violent crimes are used to provide service to the VIPs.' 'So why did the belt get arrested?' 'Because it no longer fit the inmate….see he gained weight and….' 'No because he held up the pants.' 'I don't get it.' 'Perhaps you need a jail visit to understand.' Copyright Business Recorder, 2025
