The farmers of Khyber Agency have demanded of the federal government to waive off their agricultural loans, awarded to them by Zarai Taraqiati Bank (ZTBL) prior to launch of Sept 2009 military operation in Bara and other areas of the tribal region.
Janat Gul, general secretary of Zamindar Union Khyber Agency, told Dawn that ZTBL not only suspended provision of more loans to farmers in Khyber Agency but also refused to waive off their previous loans despite their repeated requests.
