Yes there is another thread but indeed the news is amazing. The KPK govt is actually a very competent govt and their work on lawmaking development as well as education and security has been phenomenal since their police force has improved rapidly. The province indeed has jumped up several levels and I will surprised and angry if the province of kpk does not elect him again. Their stand is very admirable since we have allowed this madness to continue long enough and I am sure we will enjoy cordial relations without the killing of birds or animals and if they are still so desperate. Make a sealed city near gawader with wine, women and gambling and watch them spend months over there. :p :p

The fact that he is allowed such hunting is disgusting enough and the lack of guts in our federal govt is astounding.

Ask the competent Govt to show some national ghairat and show full consent on the building of Kala Bagh Dam. They just did it to slap on the face of Pmln Govt. Had there been some national ghairat and interest, they would not have thrown this chance to build Kala Bagh Dam. If KPK agrees its just a matter of time Sindh would agree too, as the dam is based on KPK and Punjab land.

Someone who can stand up, show some guts and talk for the people. Way to go Imran Khan and PTI. We need this type of leadership to make our country assertive and avoid insults and humiliation like Amritsar Heart of Asia conference.

Keeping respect for Qatri prince, he is HELL NOT welcome to hunt endangered species in Pakistan.

Good decision by KP government. From last one month only negative news were coming out of and popularity also remained low. Finally something to cheer on.

 

[Knight Rider]

Good Decision CM KPK !!!! show him the door because this Panama Prince is interfering in Pakistani politics.

Houbara Bustard must be protected because its an endangered species.

Corrupt Sindh government should do something for Indus Blind Dolphins because they are near extinction. Only 85 left according to reports of 2014. This rare specie of Dolphin is only found in Pakistan and not in any other part of world. So it must be protected.

I think after repeatedly angering Chinese over cpec and bouycotting address to national assembly by Turkish president, this is tne next best decision.... bravo teeli khattack....

yeah sab Nawaz sharif say milay howay hein....

The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government on Saturday rejected the request of the federal government to allow Qatari princes to hunt the houbara bustard in the province.

MPA Ishtiaq Urmar, an advisor to CM Pervaiz Khattak for Environment, Forests and Wildlife, told DawnNews he had received a letter from the interior ministry seeking permission for Qatari princes to hunt the protected bird which was refused.

The federal government's request was refused as the houbara bustard is a rare and protected bird, Urmar said.

"Following the 18th Amendment, provinces are sovereign in taking such decisions," Urmar said, adding that "strict action will be taken against those found hunting rare animals and birds."

The houbara bustard is not only protected under various international conventions and agreements signed by Pakistan but its hunting is also banned under the local wildlife protection laws.

Sources earlier told Dawn newspaper that while the other three provinces — Sindh, Punjab and Balochistan — allowed Arabs with permits to hunt the houbara bustards, KP did not. They added that a while ago, a Qatari who had been hunting in the province had been caught and fined.

What about local hunters?

This is what you get when you have hukmaraan who are only loyal to the people of Pakistan and not to Qatari or Saudi kings and princes.
