PESHAWAR: Police chief of Khyber Pakhtunkwa Nisar Khan Durrani has shown his concern about provincial government’s decision of terminating 12,500 police employees from their service.
The police personnel to be terminated include 10,000 reserved police officials and 2,500 ex-servicemen employed with the insurgency-hit province’s police force. The termination of the police personnel will start from June 30 of this year.
“The security situation has not normalised and a state of war still exists in the province, the threat level has also increased with the construction of CPEC,” said Durrani while talking to a private news service.
“The security of Karakoram Highway (KKH) has also been assigned to the civilian law enforcement agencies of province,” he continued. “The force already suffers from a shortage of equipment and other facilities, and we have to provide from our existing budget to provide security to KKH.”
He also told that he has had a discussion with chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhawa and he also claimed about writing a letter to the Home department for extending the services of police staff for two more years.
The authorities have not given any decision yet and relevant discussions are still being held.
