No difference between good and bad Taliban: Sharif

Peshawar, Dec 17 (IBNS) Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Wednesday sent out a strong message to terrorists and said his country will like to see a complete elimination of terrorism from the nation.

Sharif made the remarks after the country witnessed one of the deadliest militant attacks in recent time when a Taliban attack at a school in  Peshawar city claimed 132 lives of children besides others on Tuesday.

After a  high level meeting of parliamentary parties over the attack, which has been highly condemned by leaders across the globe, Sharif said there could not be any difference between 'bad and good' Taliban.

"There is no difference between good and bad Taliban," he said.

He said a decision was taken during the meeting to form a parliamentary committee that will chalk out national plan of action in seven days.

PTI chief Imran Khan was seen sitting beside Sharif as he addressed mediapersons on Wednesday.

Pakistani army and police officials said besides the children, the dead included nine staff members of the school. About 124 others were wounded in the attack for which the proscribed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) has claimed responsibility.
