ISLAMABAD:
The government has decided to appoint actor and artist Jamal Shah as Pakistan National Council of the Arts (PNCA) director general, it has been learnt. Several institutions including Lok Virsa and the PNCA have been operating under acting chiefs ever since the Pakistan Muslim League -Nawaz (PML-N) came to power last year. Earlier, the National Assembly Standing Committee on Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage also raised the issue. Sources say the decision to appoint Shah as director-general has already been made. Despite repeated attempts, Shah could not be approached for comment.
