Speaking during a seminar organised by the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government on terrorism in the federal capital, the PTI chairman said that the government had planned to relocate at least 5,000 TTP fighters and their family members which amount to about 35,000. But the plan did not materialise as provinces refused to foot the bill, he added.
Initially, Sindh and Balochistan refused to give 3 per cent share from National Finance Commission (NFC) for the uplift of tribal districts and then the federal government stopped its cooperation after the PTI’s ouster, he claimed.
Good riddance IK.Imran planned to settle TTP fighters in ex-Fata
• PTI chairman says KP police ill-equipped to counter militants armed with modern weaponry
• Claims Wazirabad JIT members being ‘pressurised’ to disown findings
ISLAMABAD: As he warned against the dangers of destabilisation in Afghanistan, former prime minister Imran Khan on Tuesday revealed that his government had planned to resettle banned Tehreek-i-Taliban fighters in Pakistan’s tribal districts with the help of the Afghan Taliban, but the plan hit a snag owing to non-cooperation of provinces.
Speaking during a seminar organised by the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government on terrorism in the federal capital, the PTI chairman said that the government had planned to relocate at least 5,000 TTP fighters and their family members which amount to about 35,000. But the plan did not materialise as provinces refused to foot the bill, he added.
Initially, Sindh and Balochistan refused to give 3 per cent share from National Finance Commission (NFC) for the uplift of tribal districts and then the federal government stopped its cooperation after the PTI’s ouster, he claimed.
The PTI chairman stated the fall of Kabul and rise of the Afghan Taliban to power provided Pakistan with a golden opportunity to deal with the TTP threat. “The Afghan Taliban pressurised the TTP, which had over 5,000 fighters among its 40,000-strong group, to go back to Pakistan and we took a number of steps to deal with it,” he said.
Mr Khan said that there was an anti-merger group in tribal areas and the PTI wanted to launch uplift projects to satisfy the anti-merger group, but the lack of funds didn’t lead to anything significant in this regard.
Militants and KP police
The former prime minister lashed out at the federal government for its statements against Afghanistan and warned that if Kabul stopped its cooperation then the situation would aggravate.
“If we cannot continue good relations with Afghanistan, the new war on terror will become a curse for us. I said ‘absolutely not’ [to supposed request for US bases in Pakistan] because I wanted to save Pakistanis because while drone attacks were allowed, in retaliations Pakistanis were killed,” he said.
The PTI chairman, whose government is in power in KP, said it was impossible for the provincial police to counter TTP militants who were using US-made weaponry. “Rangers are in Karachi till date,” he said referring to the deployment to the paramilitary force in Sindh.
“I had warned that entire Pakistan would suffer if terrorism started in KP. However funds were not given to us,” he said, adding that hundreds of KP police officials had lost their lives to terrorism when PTI came to power in 2013. He said that military operation was part of the peace agreement but it should be used as a last resort.
He said the militants, created by military dictator Ziaul Haq, imposed war on Pakistan after dictator Pervez Musharraf took a U-turn and sided with the US.
“We took 180-degree turn during the Pervez Musharraf era and after the Tora Bora incident; Mujahideen entered Pakistan and alleged that Pakistan was the collaborator and imposed a war on us,” he added.
In a separate tweet, Mr Khan alleged that the investigation team probing the Wazirabad attack was being pressurised. “As per media reports, JIT members being pressurised to distance themselves from the findings of JIT investigating assassination plot against me. This further confirms my conviction that powerful quarters were behind the assassination attempt on me.”

Any solution ? . Pak army and local paramilitary have been fighting TTP for the last 20 years and are unable to neutralize it. If Pashtun culture is not ready to disown them. Well, gift of the Afghan-Soveit war. We raise the monster and now the monster is after us.Imran never wanted to fight the TTP, ever since Musharraf era, and his stubborn opinion hasn't changed. Combine that with the lar-yo-bar simpers , and ex-communist converts in PTI KPK, they wish to see their province strengthened , even if at the "cost" of the federation weakening. If his 'plan' to settle these pigs back with their families, with the blessing of the Afghan Taliban had materialized, Pakistan would have spent a fortune just to become an Afghan bitch....

Imran has always had a soft spot for TTP out of ethnic affiliation.This kinda looks like hit pieces against IK and PTI.
He was the one who was hiding osama bin ladin near to Pakistani military barrack of AbbottabadGood riddance IK.
HE IS THE PRIME REASON WHY TTP rose in 2002-2009 because he was against Musharraf
Now again covertly working with TTP again
Why these establishment morons are not going for Elections then ?This kinda looks like hit pieces against IK and PTI.

All to keep the fascist IK out of power.
IK trying to settle them in KPKSo it's an ideal situation to be screwed left and right, on one side Afghan Talibans are now against Pakistan, ironically had good cordial relatiions when PTI was engaging with them more often than not.
PDM morons sent Hina Rabbani Khar to talk to Taliban and they took exception of it, Bilawal didn't know a thing about the Afghan situation, and for the fear of a US reprimand.
And a swear enemy on the eastern side breathing down the neck, Pakistan will be sandwitched between the two. So the prudence calls for good relations with Afghanistan.
And IK added if Pakistan attacks Afg. and/or used as a conduit by the US, Taliban will not attack US, but Pakistan, this is what US want, a hostile relations between Pak and Afghanistan, for obvious reasons.
PDM/PTI/Establishment all are clue less how to handle this TTP.Good riddance IK.
