      <title>Sarfraz Bugti: Jaffar Express attack is intolerable, strict action must be taken</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330406861/sarfraz-bugti-jaffar-express-attack-is-intolerable-strict-action-must-be-taken</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfraz Bugti has declared the attack on Jaffar Express “intolerable” and ordered a strict crackdown on those responsible.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He emphasised that Pakistan’s enemies will never succeed in their attempts to destabilise the nation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Following the attack, CM Bugti chaired a high-level security meeting to review the law-and-order situation in the province. The additional chief secretary for home affairs briefed officials on the attack.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;During the meeting, the chief minister made it clear: “This attack is unacceptable. Terrorists cannot be allowed to hold even an inch of our land.”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;CM Bugti stated that the intent behind such attacks is to create an atmosphere of fear and violence, but Pakistan will never be divided.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The CM stressed that security forces must fight terrorism without hesitation, ensuring that Balochistan’s peace remains intact. He vowed to provide all necessary resources to security agencies and ordered a full-scale operation against terrorist facilitators.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“There will be no compromise on security in Balochistan. Tough decisions are necessary to eliminate terrorism,” CM Bugti asserted, directing authorities to bring all culprits to justice swiftly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The meeting was attended by Chief Secretary Shakeel Qadir Khan, IGP Police Moazzam Jah Ansari, IGP Railway Police Rai Tahir, and other senior officials.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi has been in constant contact with CM Bugti, assuring full support from the federal government.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Naqvi condemned the heinous attack, expressing deep sorrow and reaffirming the government’s commitment to eradicating terrorism using all available resources.&lt;/p&gt;
