Speaker of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Assembly Mushtaq Ahmad Ghani Monday dissolved all the standing committees to include newly elected MPAs from merged districts.

The step was taken in response to a point of order of Shafiq Afridi, a PTI legislator from the tribal district Khyber.

The legislator complained that standing committees are lacking representation from merged districts of the erstwhile Fata.

He further said that KP police raid on houses in district Khyber without escorting lady police which is against the traditions of tribal people.
