Maryam Nawaz Highlights Internal Terrorism as Punjab's Primary Security Concern

Maryam Nawaz Highlights Internal Terrorism as Punjab's Primary Security ConcernPreviousNext

Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has identified internal terrorism from Pakistan's neighboring provinces, particularly Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, as a greater security threat than India. She highlighted challenges such as cross-provincial infiltration, criminal activity, and extremist movements within Pakistan. To address these issues, Punjab launched the Provincial Intelligence Fusion and Threat Assessment Center and an Artificial Intelligence Hub to enhance threat detection and coordination. Despite this focus, Punjab remains a base for groups involved in anti-India activities, according to reports.
