DERA ISMAIL KHAN, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 15th May, 2024) A ‘jirga’ was convened here under the chairmanship of Commissioner Dera Ismail Khan Zafarul islam Khattak to resolve different issues and disputes between the Wazir and Mehsud tribes.

In the jirga, convened here at the Conference room of the Commissioner's office, both the tribes agreed to resolve their all issues including the demarcation of the Gomal area amicably through negotiations.
