CM Afridi said poor and laymen children were dying in terrorism and senior officers children were safe.

KP Chief Minister said PTI was wondering what to do next. 

He said there were no differences within PTI ranks and all are on same page. He urged the Centre to provide due share of KP to its government. He said KP was deprived of profit of hydel power.
