Parliamentary Affairs Minister Tariq Fazal Chaudhry said on Wednesday that the federal government was "seriously" considering the imposition of an emergency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) in response to the worsening security situation in the province.

Political uncertainty has deepened in K-P amid growing tensions between the federal and provincial governments, with the Centre considering governor's rule and emergency as possible options.

Speaking to journalists at Parliament House, Chaudhry stated that the imposition of an emergency was being considered in K-P because of “increasing terrorism" and the provincial government’s lack of "interest" and failure to control the security situation. "The possibility of imposing an emergency under Article 232 of the Constitution is being discussed".

While talking about consultations with the Pakistan Peoples Party on the imposition of emergency in K-P, Chaudhry said the National Assembly speaker would chair a meeting where matters related to legislation would also be discussed.

Why else has all this terrorism been allowed to grow ? To create violence and chaos and then to use that violence and chaos to destroy political parties and civil society. We have seen this movie many times before in KP and Pakistan.
