KARACHI- Corps Commander Karachi Lt Gen Naveed Mukhtar today gave his opinion on the Karachi operation at a seminar organized by the National Defence University in Karachi. Lt Gen Naveed Mukhtar said, "I assure citizens that our struggle against terrorism will continue unabated." Speaking against militants and target killers, Gen Mukhtar said, "We are committed to eliminating all forms of terrorism."

He said that all political stakeholders should contribute in maintaining Karachi's security situation. Authorities and police must stay away from political influence, he added.
