At the 267th Corps Commanders’ Conference in Rawalpindi, he urged the Taliban-led Afghan government to take decisive measures against these elements.
The conference highlighted deep concerns about 'Fitna Al Khawarij,' referring to Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, and its use of Afghan soil for terrorism.
