| Former member of provincial assembly and Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) leader Maulana Abdul Rehman said that record developmental work was completed in Chitral, especially in his constituency, during the last five years, when the MMA government was in power. Rehman, who is a Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) candidate from PF-89 (Chitral-I), said this on Sunday, while talking to reporters at his office. He said that he would continue the development work if he was elected in the upcoming elections. Around 40 new schools, including primary and higher secondary schools were set up or upgraded during last five years of the MMA government, he said, adding that the status of the only degree college for boys was upgraded to post graduate college, while a new Information technology block was constructed with a cost of Rs 8 million. The MMA leader said that 80 percent construction work of a poly technical college had been completed. He said the college was being constructed with a cost of Rs 120 million at Seenlasht. He said that around 600 to 700 people were recruited for the Education Department in various categories. Rehman said that the longstanding demand of students that science teachers were not available was solved during the MMA government tenure. He said science teachers were posted at almost all schools. Distribution of free books in government schools is a great achievement of the MMA government, he added. Rehman said during the MMA government tenure, an intensive care unit was constructed at the Chitral hospital with the provincial fund, BHU Arandu was upgraded at a cost of Rs 10 million and various basic health units were set up. |
