    He further urged that FATA issue is a serious one and can only be unified through organized and serious resolve.

    Fazl suggested that general public opinion should be seriously considered with regard to the issue assuring his support for FATA supreme council he added further that the problem should be solved democratically.

    The JUI chief stressed that there is also prevalent view in FATA for a distinct provincial identity apart from unification with KP adding that for this reason, the consensus of general public should also be considered.

    Maulana Fazl-Ur-Rehman then suggested to satisfy the local tribes through negotiations rather than pressure and advised that democratic and constitutional values should be upheld.
