Sikandar Khan claimed that KP is suffering from an acute financial crisis and funds are not available to pay salaries to government employees.
KP produces cheap electricity but its residents were faced with long-hours of load shedding, adding that PTI did nothing for the youth of the province and failed to provide them with opportunities for employment.
