However, he stressed that the province must also receive its due rights.
Gandapur asserted that he is a soldier of Imran Khan and will not back down from asserting their rights.”If our rights are not granted, we are aware of how to take them,” Gandapur said while warning the federal government that if the province was not given its rights, the federal government will also not be able to function peacefully.
“It would be bette that Center should give KP its due rights without any hesitation so that we can thank the center otherwise he would lead the people of the province and will make sure they will get their rights.
Gandapur emphasized that many districts and sectors in the province have fallen behind in development, and it is imperative to develop all areas and sectors on the basis of equality as per Imran Khan’s vision, for which the provision of the province’s rightful rights and resources from the center is indispensable. Highlighting the priorities of the provincial government, Gandapur said that upholding the rule of law is their top priority.
