PESHAWAR, Oct 13: Speaker Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly Babar Saleem Swati has said that the people of KP continue to hold deep respect and affection for the Pakistan Armed Forces, emphasizing that this bond of love should always remain strong.

In a statement directed to the Director General of ISPR, Swati said that the province has produced countless sons of the soil who are proudly serving in the armed forces and have laid down their lives for the defence of the motherland. He said the people of KP have always stood by the military in times of crisis and conflict, and this relationship is rooted in patriotism and mutual respect.

However, Swati stressed that Pakistan  including Khyber Pakhtunkhwa must be governed strictly in accordance with the Constitution. “The supremacy of the Constitution and the will of the people are the foundations of democracy,” he said, adding that any unconstitutional move would not be acceptable to the people of the province.

He warned that KP would strongly react to any deviation from constitutional norms, urging all state institutions to work within their defined roles for the unity, stability, and progress of the country.
