      <title>Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly session summoned on July 20</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330424904/khyber-pakhtunkhwa-assembly-session-summoned-on-july-20</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor Faisal Karim Kundi on Thursday signed a summary on Thursday to convene a session of the provincial assembly on July 20.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to sources, the oath of office will be administered to the members elected on reserved seats during the session.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Talking to the media, Governor Kundi stated that the government and the opposition should hold consultations for the upcoming Senate elections.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He made it clear that if consultations were not held, the opposition might secure more Senate seats in the presence of 35 independent members.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kundi said he submitted proposals to the government to prevent the chances of horse trading.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to him, the chief minister had previously discussed holding a meeting; however, the chief minister showed ignorance that the previous meetings were called on requisition.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The governor urged the government to establish unity within its ranks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He also expressed reservations regarding the tribal districts, saying that these areas have become a ‘football’ between the federal and provincial governments.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kundi warned that major powers have set their sights on the Afghan border areas, and the modern weapons left there were being used in terrorism against Pakistan today.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kundi said that despite political differences, the interests of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa will be defended in association with the federation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He also revealed that the federal government has formed a committee for the revival of the jirga system.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, the real stakeholders of the tribal districts have not been included in it, the governor stated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The governor demanded that these stakeholders should be given representation in the committee for effective decision-making.&lt;/p&gt;
