War to continue till elimination of terrorists: minister

PESHAWAR: Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Information Minister Mian Iftikhar Hussain, strongly condemning the Qissa Khawani blast, said Monday that even presence of security forces in a large number could not prevent the tragic incident.

“I, therefore, appeal to people not to gather in a large number at one place, which gives an opportunity to terrorists to strike,” he said.

An undeclared third world war has begun, he said, adding that the government is paying full attention to get rid of militancy.

Hussain said that war against terrorism would continue till the complete elimimination of terrorists.

“Terrorists have no faith, no religion as they don’t spare even children, women and innocent people,” he said
