CM Gandapur preps KP law and order restoration plan in face of militant attacks

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur said a comprehensive plan had been prepared for the restoration of law and order in the province, highlighting that it was the government’s top priority.

Speaking to the media today during his first-ever visit to Dera Ismail Khan after being elected as the chief minister, the PTI leader asserted that the security plan would be implemented soon as it was imperative for the progress of any area.

He said steps would also be taken for the safety of police and other forces in light of the rise in terror attacks last year.

The chief minister said the government will also bring back the Sehat Card facility. “We have to improve the treatment facilities at public hospitals,” he said, expressing hope that the people would not feel the need to visit private hospitals as the provision of all facilities would be ensured at public hospitals.

Commenting on the current wave of inflation, he said the provincial government will give Rs10,000 each to 850,000 deserving families of the province under the Ramazan package. “It will be handed over to them at their doorstep respectfully,” CM Gandapur said.
