KOHAT, 10 MAY, (DNA) – The military has destroyed all the command and control centres of the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in Darra Adamkhel and adjoining Orakzai Agency.
A senior army officer told media that the law and order situation had gradually improved during the last few years and it was much better these days. He said that there was negligible threat to the public and military now.
The normalcy in Kohat could be gauged from the fact that the army organised a public mela (fair) inside the cantonment.
Such programmes were stopped in cantonment area due to security concerns. A large number of families thronged the three-day gala without any fear near the restricted area of the official residence of corps commander of IXth division.
Residents of Kohat have been demanding some leniency in the entry to the cantonment area, which has the shopping mall, fun and food spots, playgrounds, etc. DNA
