ISLAMABAD: June 28, 2025.
Governor Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Faisal Karim Kundi and Leader of the Opposition of the Provincial Assembly, Dr. Ibad ullah, held a meeting here on Friday and expressed deep concern over the provincial government's decision to prorogue the KP Assembly Session. They termed the indefinite postponement of the assembly session a blatant disrespect of the Supreme Court's ruling and an open refusal by the provincial government to accept the court’s decision on the matter of reserved seats.
The meeting also strongly condemned the recent Swat tragedy, where several tourists lost their lives due to drowning. The leaders criticized the government's negligence and inefficiency in handling tourism safety, holding the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa directly responsible for the deaths, as the tourism portfolio falls under his direct supervision. Governor Kundi and Dr. Ibadullah demanded the immediate resignation of Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur, saying that suspending district officials and rescue personnel would not absolve the CM of his primary responsibility. They also urged the Prime Minister to announce financial compensation for the families of those who perished in the Swat incident.
