Chief of the Army Staff General Javed Qamar Bajwa reached Parachinar to meet the families of the twin blast victims and tribal elders.
According to ISPR, army chief will also be briefed on peace and stability situation in the country.
Tens of thousands of people protested in Parachinar on Thursday to demand better security after twin bombings in a market there last week killed 75 people, officials and witnesses said.
Citizens of Parachinar began a sit-in protest soon after the two bombs went off last week on Friday evening, as shoppers were out buying supplies in preparation for the breaking of the fast on one of the last days of the holy month of Ramazan.
It’s been seven days since the families and people of the area were protesting and demanding that COAS, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif or Interior Minister Chaudary Nisar should visit them and fulfill their demands.
