BUNER: ANP provincial president Ameer Haider Khan Hoti has said the party would mobilise people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to safeguard their rights in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, which he claimed had now become China-Punjab Economic Corridor.
Speaking at a workers’ convention here on Monday, he came down hard on PTI chief Imran Khan for ‘indulging’ in politics of confrontation to the detriment of the KP people.
He alleged that the provincial government was being run from Banigala and precious time was being wasted on sits-in and protests.
Mr Hoti said the masses were fed up with the PTI, adding the KP government was facing financial crisis. He said the ongoing development schemes in Buner district had been initiated by the ANP provincial government.
ANP provincial general secretary Sardar Hussain Babak and deputy general secretary Aimal Wali Khan also spoke on the occasion.

There is a need to recognize the two faces of ANP. The ANP on one side are siding with Nawaz sharif to protect him against the possible out come on corruption charges and on the other hand considering CPEC as china Punjab Economic corridor to secure their votes in KPK. Do they think that the people of KPK can not differentiate between hypocrite and honest people?

@ALI KHAN They are not making it into kalabagh. They are just protecting the rights of the people of Pakhtunkhwa which federal does not even care about.

@Alba It's Federal govt money well china money but every province has the right to fight for its share. Everything cannot just go to Punjab. But yes ANP itself has done nothing for KPK all this is just smoke screen for their own failures.

@Alba How much money did Punjab contributed to this project? It is investment by China in Pakistan and there is no contribution by any province in it.

Such news are most embarrassing.
CPEC is an old project. It was the main main duty of the Government to ensure that all the provinces feel equally happy. I must say same thing had happened like it was"Kalabagh dam".
Justice and ADL are the corner stone of Islam. If a group says in CPEC, C stands for Punjab why not KPK why not Balochistan why not Sindh, there is something unfair. The government must on top priority resolve such issues. A big brother should be more generous

I am from Haider Hoti's constituency -- NA-9 -- and I swear I have not seen him since 2013. Neither have I heard him in the parliament. Why doesn't he talk about 'Pakhtun' rights in parliament and does in mass gatherings?
ANP talks about Pakhtunism. What a joke!
Dirty politics and poor masses get exploited.

Compared with political criticism in Pakistan, there is no such surge in China. CPEC enters through Zhinjiang comprising of only 6% of total population and inhabited by Muslims ( I have been to China ). Obviously CPEC will be more beneficial to this thinly populated Muslim areas but there is no uprising on the Mainland China Beijing, Shanghai etc. Let's learn some lessons from China.Pakistan sab ka hai

You criticize cpec and you still support Nawaz Sharif on Panama leaks issue. What kind of double standard this is ? Your party
now lacks consistency and political ethics once followed by Late Khan Abdul Wali Khan. As a result, the younger generation in
KPK are more inclined towards Imran Khan's PTI.
