Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Tuesday emphasised that the government of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) should ensure complete transparency and accountability in public welfare projects.
Presiding over 49th session of AJK Council as its chairman, PM Nawaz said his government would extend all possible support to AJK to attain progress and prosperity but the funding would come with accountability. “The similar reflection should also be seen here, where people may realise whether their hard earned money is being justly spent,” he added.
About Kashmir issue, the PM said that he had always considered it his prime duty that the issue should be resolved in accordance with the wishes and aspirations of Kashmiri people and UN resolutions.
In regards to relations with India, the premier expressed satisfaction that the situation on LoC has improved.
