KP readies emergency plan for 12 districts amid stalled negotiations
Preparations include administrative reshuffles and police appointments, but no final decision has been announced.
By Felo News Desk · Published
Authorities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have completed preparations for a possible emergency or governor’s rule that would affect 12 districts, according to sources cited by Daily Times. The plan envisions changes to deputy commissioners, provincial secretaries and the appointment of regional and district police officers. The final step depends on negotiations between the provincial government and opposition representatives, which have not yet taken place publicly, though confidential contacts continue.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is reported to have called a security meeting for Saturday to discuss whether emergency measures are needed, but no outcome has been confirmed. Senior PTI leaders, including Barrister Gohar, are expected to meet Chief Minister Sohail Afridi to brief him on federal messages and to discuss PTI’s proposed long march.
These developments follow earlier reports of protest‑control guidelines issued by the KP police amid the same emergency‑rule discussions (Felo).
