LAHORE-

Federal Minister for States and Frontier Regions, Lt General (retd) Abdul Qadir Baloch on Wednesday said military operation would not only be carried out in North Waziristan but also in all the seven tribal agencies as well as in Karachi and Lahore.

Speaking to media after participating in a program on internally displaced (IDPs) persons here, Abdul Qadir Baloch said secrecy and surprise is essential in military operation.

He said if the government had started evacuating the people from North Waziristan before it would have disclosed the launch of operation.

He sought business community help for provision of pedestal fans, water coolers and tents to around one million IDPs for their survival in this hot and humid weather.
