Shafaqna Pakistan: Balochistan Home Minister Mir Ziaullah Langau has criticised what he described as inconsistent political positions on terrorism, accusing some leaders of changing their stance after moving from government to opposition.
Speaking in Quetta, Langau said certain politicians strongly condemned terrorism while in power but adopted a different approach after leaving government. He warned that such contradictions could create confusion and weaken efforts to develop a unified national strategy against terrorism.
Referring to political figures including Sardar Akhtar Mengal, the minister said some leaders become more vocal on security and terrorism-related issues after leaving government.
The provincial home minister also referred to the political environment of 2008, saying that some leaders who now maintain a firm position against militant groups had previously supported negotiations and dialogue with them.
Langau stressed that terrorism should never be treated as a political issue.
