Khawaja Saad Rafique suggests Governor's rule possibility in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) leader Khawaja Saad Rafique has suggested the possibility of imposing Governor's rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in the event of an 'attack' on Islamabad. Rafique emphasized that while there is currently no inclination from the ruling parties to implement Governor's rule in KP, a potential attack on Islamabad could escalate the situation significantly. He called for the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to retract what he deemed an 'irresponsible statement' on the matter.

In response, Faisal Karim Kundi of the People's Party expressed his belief that Ali Amin Gandapur would voluntarily travel to Islamabad, but his return would be orchestrated by the federal government. Kundi criticized Gandapur's remarks about an attack on Islamabad as 'very irresponsible,' referencing a past incident involving Gandapur running on a highway with a bottle of honey and suggesting that a similar stunt might occur on the motorway this time.

The exchange of statements between political figures highlights the tense atmosphere surrounding potential security threats and governance in the region. The discussions around the imposition of Governor's rule underscore the delicate balance of power and the need for responsible rhetoric in times of heightened tensions.
