QUETTA: Chief of Pashtoonkhwa Milli Awami Party (PKMAP), Mehmood Khan Achakzai proposed a round table conference of all political parties to take Pakistan out of the prevailing crisis. Addressing a mammoth public meeting at the Ayub Stadium on the eve of the 49th death anniversary of Khan Shaheed Abdul Samad Khan Achakzai on Friday, Mr. Achakzia urged all political forces to put their heads together to address the prevailing issues.Â
“I believe in a democratic Pakistan wherein every nationality has its identity, and due constitutional, economic, and cultural rights. We demand the unification of Pakhtuns of southwest and northwest along with all Pashtoon areas to make a unified province. “I will salute anyone and everyone if it is a judge or general, who believes in such Pakistan”, he announced.
Achakzai also proposed that Pakhtuns want peaceful co-existence with Balochs on the basis of quality in the province. Achakzai called upon the masses to give due respect and rights to women. If you don’t send your daughters to school how we can produce women doctors, pilots and scholars and leaders, he asked. He also urges the Taliban in Afghanistan to ensure women’s access to education by removing all bans and barriers in its way.
As far as the preservation of integrity and sovereignty of Afghanistan is concerned, I am its fierce advocate, or if you call it foreign or interior minister, yes I am, come what may, Acakzai affirmed.
“The UN should guarantee the integrity and sovereignty of Afghanistan. Similarly, Afghanistan and Pakistan should adhere to the principles of noninterference in each other’s affairs and ensure bilateral peace and security, Avkakzai added.
Nawab Ayaz Jogezai, Rauf Lala, and Dr. Mohammad Ali also addressed the gathering
