SWAT: Former Chief Minister KP and Vice Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Parliamentarian(PTIPI) Mahmood Khan said that the election will be very difficult and voters will not be available due to the deteriorating law and order situation in the southern districts and heavy snowfall in the northern areas and displacement of people but we are making complete preparations in the light of the orders of the Supreme Court of Pakistan.
He expressed these views while giving an interview at his residence in Matta Tehsil of Swat district.
Mr. Mahmood Khan said that the manifesto and constitution of our party has been finalized and within a week we will prepare the manifesto and bring it to the people.Peace, development and prosperity are the main points of our party’s manifesto because when there is peace, there will be development and when there is development, people will be prosperous.
Apart from this, the rights of the province, the rights of the merged districts have not been given, our focus will be on that as well.
“When I was the chief minister, I was spending the funds of the province in the merged districts. After our government, the journey of development has stopped there, added that our province KP owes 250 billion rupees to the federal government and they are not being given.” he said.
He further said that at present, all development in the province is at a standstill. The health card has been stopped. The cards given to the landlords have been stopped and everything is going backwards.
