GHALANAI: Residents of some villages, who insist that they are part of Mohmand Agency, have sent back teams from district Charsadda who came to administer anti-polio drops. Abdul Jalil Khan, a leader of the Mohmand Resistance Movement, told Daily Times on Wednesday that all areas from Utman Khel to Mitchani were part of Mohmand Agency and teams sent by the district Charsadda administration to these villages to administer the anti-polio vaccine could not be accepted. He said had the agency’s health department and the political administration sent the teams to their areas, the tribesmen would have had no objection. Mr Khan said the WHO had been informed of the problem and that 30,000 children might remain deprived of the vaccine.
