KARACHI:
Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations Abdullah Hussain Haroon said on Saturday that he had been granted an extension.
Haroon said that although he had made a “principled stand” to be relieved of his duties, he had been asked to continue due to important developments like floods and India’s ambitions to be part of UN’s Security Council. “My purpose is to return and do some welfare work for the people,” he said.
