He said that new sophisticated weapons have been provided to the police force. “We have five-star police stations in the province.”

He said the KP Police fought bravely during the terrorist attack at the agricultural university in Shabqadar, district Charsadda, and they expect that the police should be supported.

He further said the the culture of favouritism and nepotism in the police has been eliminated, and all postings are done purely on merit, and the KP govt has not influence over them.

“Police postings based on favouritism have been eliminated. Now all jobs are provided after passing the NTS,” he said adding that competent and educated officers have been inducted in the police force.

CM KP the provincial has passed through the worst situation and has witnessed several incidents of terrorism, and therefore the police should not be pressurised.

“KP has passed through a lot and seen incidents of terrorism, so I request everyone not be pressurise them,” he said.
