In a significant development, Majlis-e-Wahdat-ul-Muslimeen (MWM) has announced the conclusion of nationwide sit-ins held in solidarity with the people of Parachinar. The decision follows the signing of a peace agreement in Kurram District, aimed at restoring stability in the region.
Speaking at a press conference in Karachi, MWM Chief Allama Raja Nasir Abbas declared an end to the protests, including those in Karachi and Islamabad. He emphasized the importance of implementing the peace agreement and urged the government to take immediate steps to honor its commitments.
“All participants of the sit-ins should now return to their homes peacefully. I appeal to Bilawal Bhutto to investigate the tragic incident that led to this movement and ensure justice for the oppressed,” he stated.
Allama Nasir Abbas explained that a grand jirga held in Kohat successfully brought both sides to the negotiation table, resulting in the agreement. He added that the responsibility now lies with the government to ensure its implementation.
