Mega Uplift Plan Approved for Malakand: CM
MINGORA: Chief Minister Mahmood Khan has said that a mega development plan has been devised for the Malakand division.
Talking to mediapersons here on Sunday, he said no compromise would be made on the rights of KP province.
“The federal government has not refused to give KP the funds under the NFC award and the province will soon receive the money,” he said, insisting that increase in prices of daily use commodities was the result of the poor policies of the previous governments.
“The PTI government will soon be able to control the inflation,” he promised, saying employments were being made in the province under a transparent mechanism.

He said that land was being acquired for setting up a small industrial zone in Swat. He promised to resolve the water shortage issue in Mingora.
