Kohat Grand Jirga Nears Breakthrough: Peace Agreement Expected Today
(MENAFN- Tribal News Network)
Efforts to maintain peace in Kurram hit a slight delay as the Kohat Grand Jirga was postponed until Wednesday. According to government sources, the decision came after one party requested the postponement due to logistical and personal reasons.
Reasons Behind the Postponement
Sources revealed that three key representatives from the requesting party were unable to reach Kohat. One was occupied in Peshawar, while two others were dealing with family bereavements.
No Deadlock Between Parties Government officials emphasized that there is no deadlock between the parties. Both sides have reportedly agreed on nearly all discussion points, and the postponement was purely logistical.
