Summary Flays the term ‘good and bad Taliban’ and says armed forces were protecting militants in FATA.

 

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Getting angry over the “establishment”, Pakhtunkhawa Awami Mili Party chief Mahmood Khan Achakzai has said if establishment was not controlled he would quit the National Assembly.

 

“Our agencies could find a needle even in muddy water! how couldn’t they overcome problems”, he said while speaking in an emotional and shaky voice over Balochistan incident that left 25 dead on Saturday.

 

Achakzai sought the withdrawal of the army from FATA and claimed that Pakistan was interfering in Afghanistan.

 

The PkMAP chief blamed the armed forces for allowing militants in FATA and said the policy of good and bad Taliban must now be stopped.

 

“US is not mad in carrying out millions worth in drone strikes, it is true that we are interfering in Afghanistan, the time is limited, entire world has become our enemy, the allegations leveled against us have been proved, Osama was caught from near the SSB Training Academy, we sold the nuclear bomb, and neighbouring countries including China are not happy with us.”

 

Achakzai added that he would quit the assembly, if the establishment was not reined in by two years.

 

Pakhtoonkhwa Awami Milli Party leader was of the view that Col. Imam, former intelligence officer, had revealed giving training to 95,000 people.

 

“Everyone in the world is against us, even China! United States is not a fool to use drone attacks in Pakistan”, he added.

 

“We need to take US in confidence for talks with Taliban and it should be a part of the dialogue,” Achakzai further said. “As long as dialogue continues, the drone attacks should be terminated,” he stressed.

 

However, on a point of order, objected by a lawmaker, Achakzai took back his words “go to hell” for assembly.
