NationalNo development fund to be given to MPAs: Imran Khan

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Monday said that no development fund would be given to the members of provincial assembly (MPAs) from now onward.

The PTI Chief said that Galiyaat Development Authority (GDA) is going to be established and will be extended till Kaghan, adding that CM House and Speaker House Nathiya Gali would also be handed over the GDA for rental services.

“We’re going to introduce Madrassah reforms. We have signed a memorandum of understanding with Haqqania Madrassah which will be made public to clear objection regarding funding,” he said.

Imran Khan said that it was a part of the PTI manifesto to integrate the Madrassahs into mainstream by introducing modern education. Madrassah students would also be taught science subjects, he said.
