Afghanistan should stop blame game: Sherpao  

 
ISLAMABAD: Interior Minister Aftab Ahmad Khan Sherpao Friday advised the Afghan authorities to stop blaming Pakistan for unrest in their country or provide solid proof if they had any to substantiate allegations.

Talking to media here after inaugurating computerization of vehicle registration project, he reiterated that a stable Afghanistan is in vital interest of Islamabad and the region as a whole.

"We are doing our best for stability and peace in Afghanistan and the government is contributing a lot towards rehabilitation and reconstruction in the neighbouring country," Sherpao said.

To a question the Minister said Pakistan had avoided indulging in accusations as Islamabad "wants to have good relations with Kabul."

Replying to a question about holding of anti-government rallies by political elements, Sherpao said no one would be allowed disturb peace and order in the country.

He said such protests would achieve nothing as people understand the politics of the opposition parties and know that they do not have any agenda to put before the nation.

Earlier addressing the inaugural ceremony of the project he said that the computerized vehicle registration would provide fool-proof security system and help eliminate fake registration of motor vehicles.

As part of government efforts to computerize all departments in the capital work is under way to computerize the records of revenue, police and ICT administration.

The government is working to install security cameras in the capital to make it more secure for its residents, Sherpao said.

Sherpao said the government is taking keen interest to further improve the infrastructure of the capital so that it could meet the future requirements.
