PESHAWAR (Kashmir English): The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor, Faisal Karim Kundi, has strongly condemned the recent remarks of Chief Minister Sohail Afridi regarding the Pakistan armed forces.
In his tweet, on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, Faisal Kundi stated that such rhetoric undermines the honour and sacrifices of the country’s security personnel.
While expressing his anger, Governor Faisal Kundi said that ”brave sons of the soil” continue to lay down their lives to protect the province and its people, and questioning their intent in sensational or political terms damages morale and threatens public safety.

The intelligence-based operations have been and will continue to be a fundamental part of civilian protection and the restoration of peace. “These operations are conducted solely to safeguard the people,” he said, adding political debate must not cross into an area where national security institutions are weakened.
The Governor Faisal Kundi called upon CM Afridi to show restraint and put the unity and security of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa above partisan positioning, emphasizing that the current security situation demands all the political forces stand with the armed forces for long-lasting stability in the region.
“Ultimately, accountability lies with the people, who will make their choice in the coming elections,” Governor Kundi added.
