Overseas Minister Sajid Turi, in collaboration with the Pakistan Army, has made a significant announcement of reopening 62 coal mines, providing employment opportunities to over 5,000 individuals in Kurram District.
These mines had been non-operational for the past 16 years due to terrorism in the region. This decision will ultimately contribute to the further development of Pakistan's economy.
On the auspicious occasion, Minister Turi expressed that this initiative aligns with the vision of PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto, who aims to create employment opportunities and ensure the welfare of coal mine workers.
In a recent visit to Geneva, Turi attended a conference organized by the IndustriALL Global Union, where he addressed the ongoing issue of mining accidents in Pakistan. The minister, during the conference, focused on the welfare of coal mine workers, recognizing their significant role in the development of Pakistan's economy.
The local community has warmly welcomed this decision, expressing gratitude towards the government and army for their relentless efforts.
This step exemplifies a remarkable collaboration between the government and the army in their shared commitment towards the country's development and progress.
By reviving and enhancing the coal industry, the government can generate further opportunities for its citizens and strengthen the nation's economy.
