NWFP government alarmed over peace agreement violation

However, the Swat Taliban militants have yet to honour their role in bringing an end to the destruction of schools in Swat. So far around 70 schools, mostly of girls, have been either demolished or blown up by the alleged militants.

Our Staff Reporter from Peshawar adds: Taking notice of the increasing violation of peace agreement in Swat, the NWFP government directed the quarters concerned to hold an early meeting of the joint implementation committee.

According to an official letter, addressed to the NWFP Forest and Environment Minister Wajid Ali Khan and Regional Coordination Officer Malakand, Mr Fazal Karim Khattak, the government through Home and Tribal Affairs Department showed great resentment over the frequent violations of the peace agreement.
