Opposition Leader Mahmood Khan Achakzai has responded to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif\u2019s invitation for an in-camera briefing, demanding that the entire Parliament be taken into confidence over the regional situation and rising Pak-Afghan tensions. Speaking to the media, Achakzai said the opposition\u2019s position is clear: any security briefing should be delivered before the full Parliament rather than a select group of members. \u201cWe were told to raise this point before the Prime Minister. I said we will consult our colleagues,\u201d he stated. Call for Joint Session Achakzai suggested that the briefing be held either in a joint session of Parliament or at least in the Senate, stressing that the current regional situation is serious and requires transparency. \u201cThe situation in the region is dangerous. Parliament should be taken into confidence,\u201d he added. He further said the opposition would formally communicate its decision to the government by tomorrow morning. \u00a0Growing Regional Concerns The demand comes amid escalating tensions along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border and heightened regional security concerns, prompting calls for broader political consensus on national security matters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
