The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) government has declared a stand against the federal government, with Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur directing the Insaf Lawyers Forum to take action.

In a significant move, the KP government has also announced a grant of Rs24 crore for bar associations.

Sources reveal that the government is also planning to recruit government employees within these associations.

Chief Minister Gandapur has instructed the bar associations to send resolutions to the federal government regarding false cases. He has urged them to demand evidence for these alleged false cases.
