PTM Chief Manzoor Ahmed Pashteen, accompanied by leaders of the Jirga formed for October 11, met with key figures from the Pakhtunkhwa Milli Awami Party (PMAP) and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI). The meeting aimed to discuss the objectives of the Pakhtun Jirga scheduled for October 11 and underscore its significance for the region.
The PTM delegation, including Manzoor Ahmed Pashteen, Haji Abdul Samad Khan, Khairul Amin, Malik Inayatullah Khan Kasi, Saber Bilal, Sain Anwar, Imran Afridi, and Ameen Khan, presented a detailed agenda for the upcoming Jirga. They emphasized the urgent need for unity and a collective effort towards a socially and economically stable path, moving away from a war economy. Pashteen highlighted that peaceful political resistance is the only viable solution to the ongoing conflict and instability in Pakhtunkhwa.
On October 11, the representative delegation, including Jangrez Momand, Professor Faiz Muhammad Shehzad, Dr. Gul Alam, Principal Rafiq Aryan, Zahir Shah Khan Kakhar, Malik Wali Kasi, Haji Nasruddin, Sardar Ayub Sherani, Sardar Haftay Khan, and Watan Gran, also visited key leaders of the Awami National Party (ANP) and PTI. This visit was part of their broader effort to invite various Pashtun parties to the Jirga and showcase resistance against the atrocities inflicted by the Pak Army and foster unity among the Pashtun community.
The delegation’s outreach to ANP, PMAP, and PTI, and their plans to invite additional Pashtun parties, mark a critical step towards consolidating efforts for the safety and future of Pashtuns. Pashteen and his team have made it clear that now is the time for Pashtun leaders to set aside differences and work together for their people who have been under suppression of the Punjabi Pakistan Army.
