Pakistan hits 1.1 million deportations by April 2025. Torkham border? Non stop traffic 469k Afghans gone by March, 425k chasing. Nationwide grind. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa? Laughable 153 that month. Might as well mail postcards instead.
KP's ground zero for Afghan crowds. Camps? "Officially dead," but party's raging. Peshawar stuffed with 40k. Electricity zaps. Water pours. Local families get leftovers. Feds bark: provinces, deliver. KP tunes out. Enter April 4 Peshawar rally. CM Gandapur roars: "Voluntary exits only. No shove. Terror? Islamabad's fault." Spot-on security call. But follow through? Vanished like smoke.
Real peril brews. Blasts tied to Afghan ops—UN stamps it. 250k phony IDs sprout from KP dirt. Forgery crews bold. Got patrons upstairs? Smells rotten. Pakistan's open-door refugee era? Faded glory. Jobs snatched. Schools jammed. Wards overflow. Everyday folks crushed under weight. Gandapur's mercy play? Pretty words hiding stall tactics.
Camp lineup endures: Chitral through Kohat. Paper closed. Reality loaded with perks. Feds sketch phased hits papers later. KP snubs. Ignites fed province blaze. Sindh, Punjab, Baloch hustle. KP? Comfy spectator seat.
IFRP skips hate. Pure statecraft. Own people first. Balanced load. KP's foot dragging? Torches budget, bonds, barricades. ID scams explode. Calm frays fast.
Provinces hustle. KP lounges. What's it take for KP to quit stalling or brace for the storm?
