That's the way to go, Good job KPK.

Punjab can learn a lesson. Just look at our IG Punjab Sukhera. His intellect and demeanour is not more than that of a constable, the man cannot even form proper sentences. His only redeeming quality is that he is a personal chaprasi of Shahbaz Sharif and Hamza Shahbaz.

Plz read again. They gave more powers to IG KPK Police esp of the transfers and postings and that means that even CM KPK can not do anything himself sans approval of IG Police KPK in this regard. This is what true depoliticizing Police mean. And that is why many in opposition were making hue and cry as KPK Police was again saved from being their "GHULAM".
