KP Governor calls on Ishaq Dar

The Governor appreciated the initiatives taken by the federal government for the revival of economy and said a positive improvement was being seen.

He conveyed an invitation form the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chamber of Commerce to the Finance Minister for visit, which he accepted.

The Finance Minister assured the Governor that despite financial constraints, all the legitimate financial requirements of the tribal areas would be met.

Dar said that all political parties should unite to address the economic problems facing the country. He recalled he had made a plea in that regard in his post-budget speech in Parliament in last month.

The government, he said, had cleared 67 per cent of the circular debt settling dues of the independent power producers and was in the process of clearing the balance amount before the deadline.
