NA speaker calls in-camera briefing
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said on Thursday that the military leadership would answer all the questions regarding the current security situation, launching of a fresh military operation and the resettlement of banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan in Pakistan by the previous civil and military rulers in an in-camera session on national security issues at National Assembly on April 14.
The prime minister’s assurance to the National Assembly came as an endorsement of Defence Minister Khawaja Asif’s statement in the assembly that the military leadership would not only take the lawmakers in confidence but address all their concerns on the security situation, military operation and TTP members’ resettlement, among other things.
The defence minister said that the military leadership was fully cognisant of the fact that the TTP fighters have come from Afghanistan to Pakistan, revealing on the floor of the house that the TTP officials are still coming in the country. The statements have come in line with NA Speaker’s decision to call NSC’s in-camera briefing on Friday at National Assembly at 2:30pm.
