Displaced tribesmen: 'effort should be made to minimise difficulties'

16 Nov, 2011

The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor, Barrister Masood Kausar, has asked the political administration of Khyber Agency to be fully alert to the situation emerging in wake of the steps underway to overcome the law and order problems in certain parts of the agency and bring normalcy therein and directed that every effort should be made to minimise the difficulties of the dislocated tribesmen.
Talking to the Political Agent, Khyber Agency, Mutahar Zeb, who called on him at Governor's House, Peshawar, he said that no doubt it is a difficult situation yet of timely nature and the efforts of both the security forces and administration to overcome the challenges are appreciable.
He expressed the desire to uprooted families would be facilitated, especially in provision of camping, edibles and healthcare. The political administration, he stressed, should also ensure provision of the items of daily use, besides continuing effective supervision of the relief arrangements.
He also referred to his recent visit to the Jalozai Camp, near Pabbi in District Nowshera and expressed the hope that the relief measures would have been further improved to facilitate the internally dislocated tribesmen. It merits a mention here that more than 1,300 tribal families, dislocated from Khyber Agency have temporary been lodged in the camp.
