Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has declared that the Rangers would stay in Karachi until complete restoration of peace takes place.
Sharif reportedly said that the city has seen an improvement in law and order since the operation against the terrorists was launched.
Sharif admitted that there was a need to expedite the implementation of some points of the National Action Plan (NAP) against terrorism, reports the Dawn.
He also said the ongoing Operation Zarb-i-Azb has drastically brought down the number of terrorist attacks across the country and is yielding positive results.
Sharif further added that the investigations into the Pathankot attack would be completed soon and reiterated his commitment that Pakistan would never allow terrorists to use its soil against any other country.
