ISLAMABAD Nov 16 (TNS): Interior Minister Ahsan Iqbal said on Thursday that India is using Afghan soil for terrorism in Balochistan.

While speaking to journalists, he said that the terror incidents are an attempt to sabotage multi-billion China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). “We will resolve all such issues in coming times,” he said.

He said that Pakistan has moved beyond from the baggage of 1999 and 2002.

Responding to a question, he said that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan is calling for general elections earlier before its schedule because he fears that his party’s nominated candidates will not be elected in the Senate elections.

The interior minister reiterated that the government will complete its term. He added that every Pakistani believes that the country is on the path of progress.

“Every single Pakistani believes that today’s Pakistan is better from its recent past,” he said.

Taking a jibe at the PTI, he said that running a government requires experience, how can the nation hand over its future to a person who has not even worked in a Union Council.
