Kashmir chapter meeting: PPP wants action against terrorists

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has demanded decisive action against all terrorist groups including those with political ambitions. According to a statement issued after PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s meetings with Kashmir chapter of the party, “PPP has noted the promise made by the government to investigate involvement of any Pakistani outfit in the Pathankot airbase attack.” The party has also noted the claims of the government that the offices of the said banned outfit ‘are being traced and sealed’ and its members detained, it said. “It is surprising that the offices of an organization that was banned over a decade ago are still being traced and sealed,” the statement said. The delegation included President AJK Sardar Muhammad Yaqub Khan, Prime Minister AJK Chaudhry Abdul Majid, speaker and deputy Speaker of AJK Legislative Assembly, cabinet ministers and PPP AJK office bearers.
