Waziristan’s Burning Fuse: Dawar Blasts Pakistan’s “Militarised” Policies
Mohsin Dawar, the Central Chairman of Pakistan’s National Democratic Movement (NDM) and a former Member of the National Assembly, has sounded an alarm over the escalating security crisis in North and South Waziristan. His statement, issued on July 10, 2025, paints a grim picture of the region.
Dawar directly accuses the Pakistani state of exacerbating the instability. He alleges that deliberate militarisation and strategic geopolitical games are fuelling the conflict, rather than resolving it.
The former parliamentarian’s warning carries significant weight, given his deep understanding of the region and his past political involvement. His claims demand serious attention from both Islamabad and the international community.
This escalating situation in Waziristan has far-reaching implications for regional stability and the ongoing fight against extremism. The international community must engage proactively to prevent further deterioration and potential humanitarian crises.
