# # # Maqsood Utmankhel - A Symbol of Service, Struggle and the Red Flag
Maqsood Utmankhel belongs to the Utmankhel tribe settled in Mohmand, which resides in two tehsils of District Mohmand — Tehsil Ambar and Tehsil Prang Ghar.
He is active in the national movement of Pashtuns, the Awami National Party (ANP), and has long been struggling under the red flag of this party, especially for the rights of the people of Tehsil Ambar. He has dedicated his life to the service of the people.
Maqsood Utmankhel stands in the practical field for every issue of the Utmankhels like the mountain of Tatari. Whether it is the issue of ongoing and never-ending terrorism, whether it is raising a voice for the missing Pashtuns due to seditious wars and dollar wars, whether it is the issue of destroyed houses, whether it is the demand for a school or college for children's education, whether it is the issue of drinking water, or any thought, voice or practical step for the welfare of orphans and widows — he is wholeheartedly ready to serve in every field.
Through his character, he has proven that he has adopted the pure and clean path of truth, which is the path of peace and non-violence and which was bequeathed to us by the late Hazrat Bacha Khan (RA), and he is a tireless warrior and leader walking on that same path.
Maqsood Ali Utmankhel has served as the Tehsil General Secretary of his party, then as President, and then as the District Social Media Secretary of District Mohmand, and has fulfilled his responsibilities 100%.
He is inspired by the political insight and pure, truthful service and clean struggle of the leader of the movement, Khan Abdul Wali Khan, and is moving towards his destination on the path shown by the elders.
Maqsood Ali Utmankhel is an endless, true, selfless and sincere voice for the unity, bright future, progress, peace and humanity of his tribe, District Mohmand and all Pashtuns.
He has from time to time raised his voice on every issue for the people settled in Ambar and Prang Ghar, from electricity supply to paved roads, and has left no stone unturned in awakening the people.
Even today, Maqsood Ali Utmankhel praises the political insight and high stature of national leader Asfandyar Wali Khan and youth leader Aimal Wali Khan and takes pride in his nationalist political party ANP. He says that the true and only path of service and demanding rights is the one that continues from Bacha Khan Baba to Aimal Khan, and this is the path of salvation.
In his party, he is inspired by party leaders like Shaheed Maulana Khanzaib Shaheed, Sardar Hussain Babak Sahib, MPA Nisar Baz Sahib and other select leaders and intellectuals, as well as other nationalist leaders like Dr. Najibullah Shaheed and Dr. Ashraf Ghani.
He considers selfless politics and true public service full of the spirit of service as his duty and considers himself a small soldier of this path. He stands in the front row in every issue of the nation and has proven that this passion is strong and powerful in him.
It is incumbent upon the people to love Maqsood Utmankhel in return for his love, to demolish the walls built of hatred and break the chains of hatred.
Maqsood Utmankhel hates theft and corruption and says that theft and corruption increase the problems of the people and create distrust in society. Therefore, he repeatedly says that politicians should refrain from theft and the root of corruption should be eradicated. He himself avoids theft and does not like thieves and corrupt people. He often says that if I ever become a ruler, holding thieves accountable will be my first step and delivering rights to the rightful will be my goal.
Maqsood Ali Utmankhel is a Red Nationalist and a man of pure belief.
It should be noted that he demands the establishment of a college for Ambar, which is far from development and drowned in darkness, because Allah has blessed Ambar with mountains of nephrite, chromite and marble. These treasures of the state were looted on a large scale, resources worth billions of rupees were looted from this area and thieves got their share, but in return, the youth of Ambar have remained uneducated to this day due to the absence of a college in the area and have lagged behind other nations of the world. Therefore, he raises his voice for the establishment of a college for Ambar.
Maqsood Ali Utmankhel wants to see his nation and people developed like other nations of the world. May Allah fulfill his wishes.
