The CM called upon the federal government to realise its role in repatriating Afghan refugees and confining them to camps outside KP. He said that the federal government should prepare a roadmap for the rapid repatriation of refugees to their homeland.

“We admit that law and order situation in KP is the our responsibility but the federal government should also try to remove all the obstacles hindering better law and order situation in the province,” said the CM.

The Afghan refugees are a problem inherited by the KP government inherited and “we all need to be on one page to find a suitable solution to this problem”, said Khattak.

“We are in a state of war and the Afghan refugees are a burden on the health sector and provincial infrastructure,” said Khattak. He demanded the deployment of Frontier Constabulary at the border of settled and tribal areas in the country’s north-west.

  1. Khattak hates Afghan refugees because his nephew fall in love with an Afghan student in IMS University of Peshawar and ran away from home with that boy and as per rumors by friends of them they went to India through Afghanistan and recently came back and the girl was handed over to Mr. Khattak brother by elders of Afghan boy.

    that is the reason Khattak hate all Afghans and tried enough to involve them in Army public School Attack.
