Militancy and extremism will be eliminated and writ of the government will be established at all cost in Swat valley, said Corps Commander Peshawar, Lieutenant General Muhammad Masood Aslam. He said this while talking to troops in action for restoring peace in Swat valley here on Thursday.
He said that people of Swat are peace loving and have boldly rejected the baseless cause of miscreants forced on them. He said that brave people of Swat should join hands and help security forces in fighting against growing militancy and extremism in Swat. He also urged Ulema, notables and influential community to support security forces in establishing writ of the government and eliminating terrorism, militancy/extremism from peaceful valley of Swat.
He abhorred that community and masses be motivated for enforcement of true Shariah according to the teachings of Islam. The Corps Commander greatly appreciated and lauded valiant and courageous participation of security forces in fighting against militancy and extremism. He directed all commanders in the area to protect lives of innocent and peace loving citizens during any operation against militants in Swat.
Life remained peaceful in Mingora, offices and schools remained open and people were busy in their normal day-to-day life. A section of press reported chaos and confusion spreading in Swat, which is absolutely false and devoid of fact. People of Swat are in favour of security force’s operation and only dissident miscreants are involved in anti-state activities and disturbing peace of the area.
