Charsadda was a political center of Pakhtuns and will remains so: CM Hoti

We are committed for eradication of terrorism from the motherland and establishment of peace and we have paid a heavy price for it. All other kind of sacrifice will be rendered for this purpose. The Pakhtuns are fighting for endurance of humanity not only their survival. ANP has achieved its manifesto within two and a half year despite challenging circumstances. He said eight to ten departments will soon shift to provinces from federation under provincial autonomy and the province has got its identity and sovereignty as per aspirations of our ancestors and leaders. He said provincial autonomy, NFC Award, net hydel profit and restoration of constitution of 1973 in its original shape are greater achievements of the government. Our opponents are scared of successes attained under red flag.
