Addressing a private TV channel, Asif stated that over 150 terrorists have been killed in Balochistan and India is patronizing them in the province. He added that Balochistan’s vast land and sparse population make it an ideal breeding ground for terrorists, who exploit this situation.

He emphasized that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has also become a target for terrorists and that the region’s rulers need to support the national narrative and allow the military and federal institutions to operate freely to counter terrorism.
