Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) Prime Minister Sardar Tanveer Ilyas Khan Monday said empowering women and youth was his government’s top priority, which had taken many initiatives in that regard.
He said along with other programmes, the government had started an interest-free loan scheme in which special priority was given to women for shared prosperity.
The AJK prime minister was talking to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader Ms. Noreen Farooq Ibrahim.
He said many new projects were being introduced to reduce unemployment in the region. The government had introduced reforms in the health sector so as to provide better healthcare facilities to the people, he added.
“Effective management of the state machinery and sanitation is our priority,” he said. Sardar Tanveer said economic stability in Pakistan was imperative as national security was linked to the country’s economy, and for that all the political parties and stakeholders should come together to tackle the issue.__Daily Times
