Speaking separately with newly appointed Inspector General of Police, Muhammad Tahir Khan, and Additional Chief Secretary (Home), Hamza Shafqaat, at the Governor House Quetta, Mandokhail said durable peace is essential for political and economic stability, which can only be achieved through close cooperation between the government and the people.
