Why is Pakistan's Pashtun movement under attack? Reality of PTM
Pakistan is the most beautiful country and known for its
mountains, rivers, and culture. Last year Pakistani tourist department really
boom and the world are appreciating the Pakistani Culture and beautiful raw
places of Pakistan.
The most beautiful area of Pakistan is the Northern, Specifically the KpK. And the Federally
Administered Tribal Areas FATA which is now the part of KpK.
Which was a semi-autonomous tribal region in northwestern Pakistan,
that existed from 1947 until being merged with neighboring province Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa in 2018.
The question ‘’is that there is any problem in KpK
specifically in Fata. Yes, they have. They are in a war with terrorism and also
KpK is in very close proximity to the Afghan border.
When we talk about Fata, there are just tribal areas and they really lagged when we compared them to the
other province and cities of Pakistan. Pakistani
Army is always in Northern Areas of Pakistan.
Especially in KpK and Baluchistan and Kashmir.
So, result in the new player which is the PTM {Phutoon
Tahafaz Movement}. The movement, which advocated for the rights of ethnic
Pashtuns affected by Pakistan's war against the Taliban in its northwest, was
formed in 2016 by a group of eight university students in the northwestern city
of Dera Ismail Khan.
Led by veterinary sciences student Manzoor
Pashteen, they formed the Mehsud Tahaffuz Movement (MTM), a pressure group
seeking to highlight the struggles of the more half a million people who fled
their native South Waziristan due to the fighting.
The district, one of the poorest and least developed in
Pakistan, was at the time part of the Federally Administered Tribal Areas
(FATA), a region governed under colonial-era regulations that gave citizens no
fundamental rights.
But when Fata emerges into the KPK as we above discussed.
Now all terrorist groups
are eradicated. Now all the people have all their rights.
Situation is now there is totally changed but PTM is
still active there and it has
many allegiance with the Afghan Taliban and they cross Pak-Afghan broader
without any
Official Permission.
PTM is an internationally recognized Social Activist who Protects the right of Phuston people but in
reality, they want full independence and the liberation of the
era.
They really got some radical demands.
The movement is run nationally by Manzoor pasteen and Ali Naqvi and there some demands which are 100
percent fair.
But there Motto is bullshit and Radical. Which is Ye jo dehshatgardi hai, iske peeche wardi hai (The
ones responsible for terrorism are
the ones in uniform). Means the Pakistan Army.
Let talk about their demands, most of them are fair. But
they got hidden agenda too.
Main demands
The main demands of PTM presented during the Pashtun Long
March's gatherings in 2018 included, among others:
1. A truth and reconciliation commission must be established
for all the people who are killed extrajudicially like Naqeebullah Mehsud in
alleged fake encounters by the law enforcement agencies of Pakistan.
2. The missing persons who are imprisoned at unknown places
must be tried in a court of law, and forced disappearances must be stopped.
These missing people are also found in Afganistan working for the Afghan
Taliban.
3. Landmines must be removed from the Pashtun tribal
areas. That is the real problem there.
Pakistan Army also loss many solider while removing them.
5. The humiliation of locals at army checkpoints in the Pashtun
areas must be ended.
Let talk about that they want no checkpoints of the army.
Seriously, this broader is very close with India and the army arrested Indian
Spy Kalboshan yadaav there too. Terrorism there too. And they feel humiliated to
be checked at the checkpoints of Army.
The leader of PTM always took advantage of innocent
people in tribal areas. Because people of that area faced war and they are a bit
angry with the establishment.
Demand of people of those areas
The majority of people have lost their homeland during the
war. People demanded funds in this respect the government offered at least 2
lacks rupees but Pashtun disagreed with Govt and said this money is not enough
to build even three rooms.
Recently Govt announce a big package for people of
Waziristan and after the emergence of FATA in KPK these two issues are
solved.
People of Waziristan dislike the slogans of PTM against Pakistan,
which is Ye jo dehshatgardi hai, iske peeche wardi hai (The ones responsible
for terrorism are the ones in uniform)
Da sanga azadi da? (What kind of freedom is this?)
After the incident on check post, people showed their
hatred against that party.
PTM the attacked-on check post. Soldiers warn them. In
response, they killed a couple of soldiers.
The Aafia Siddiqui is a Pakistani neuroscientist with degrees
from MIT and been jailed for 70 years, just for posing a Gun to the solider.
And these so-called leaders are still on bail.
