Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chief minister Pervez Khattak said on Sunday that he or his government had no differences with the Chinese ambassador but the respectable envoy should make it clear that western route was an integral part of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) so that the controversy on the issue could be resolved.
Speaking at a public meeting at Aza Khel Payan, district Nowshera he said that Federal Minister Ahsan Iqbal had stopped them from briefing the members of provincial assembly. He asked the minister to present the documents of CPEC agreement signed between China and Pakistan.

Khattak also asked the Prime Minister to fulfill the commitment, which he had made to the political parties at an All-Party Conference. He said that they were not the opponents of Punjab or other provinces, but they should be given due rights.

"The matter is related to national security and the insult of an important institution such as Pakistan army will not be tolerated in any circumstances and they must condemn it," he demanded urging Interior minister Chaudhry Nisar to stop giving explanations and unmask the real faces.
Khattak said it looked like and activity of the media cell working under the supervision of Maryam Nawaz or someone else from Prime Minister's House that had machinated to defame army.
On the planned sit-in and lockdown of Islamabad by the PTI chief Imran Khan, he said Islamabad rally was not aimed at hurting people but it was for the Prime Minister who was not telling from which money his family bought properties in London and other assets.
