\n37 different games were organized in which 56000 students participated from all over the province.
\nThe Chief Minister during his visit laid the foundation stone for the Khpal Kor Nursing & Health Science College which is being established under Khpal Kor Foundation. The provincial government has provided a grant of Rs 150 million for the project.
\nThe Chief Minister also performed the groundbreaking of Paraplegic Center in Barikot which will be completed at an estimated cost of Rs 1.38 billion. The centre consists of 110 bedded wards, 40 private rooms, Physical Therapy OPD, Pathology Lab, Pharmacy, Pediatric Rehabilitation unit and other allied facilities.
\nAddressing the groundbreaking ceremony of Nursing and Health Science College, the Chief Minister said that free educational facilities will be imparted to orphan students in the proposed nursing college.
\nThe Chief Minister said that the KP government is working for the welfare of the vulnerable segment of the society as per the vision of chairman PTI Imran Khan.
\nHe said that Imran Khan has gone all out to help and facilitate the venerable segment of the society.
\nShaukat Khanum Hospital is no doubt a landmark achievement which is providing state of the art treatment facilities to the cancer patients. Besides, he launched Ehsaas program under which multiple welfare measures have been initiated.
\nLater on, in the passing out ceremony of the first batch of Tourism Police, the chief minister congratulated 173 passed-out police personnel and hoped that they will play a proactive role in facilitating tourists in the province.
\nMahmood Khan said that the Tourism Police Force is a unique initiative, with the purpose to provide a peaceful, safe and conducive environment to the tourists comming to KP.
\nHe made it clear that the Tourism Police will be different from the traditional police adding that its basic responsibility is to protect tourists at tourist destinations.
\nThe initiatives taken by the provincial government have started yielding positive results as the government had generated a revenue of Rs 66 billion from the tourism sector last year.
\nCriticizing the poor policies of the incumbent federal government, the chief minister said that the current situation of law and order in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is due to the incompetent imported government at centre.
\nThe Defense Minister of the Federal Government is a non-serious person who is criticizing our police and CTD just to cover up their incompetence and injustice.The provincial government has completed many welfare projects including the successful completion of the merger of erstwhile FATA into KP.
\nErstwhile FATA was promised a Rs 100 billion budget per year to address their long standing deprivations but only Rs 5 billion have been released so far. Mahmood Khan regretted that the federal government has withheld the funds of settled and merged districts which is blatant injustice with the people of the province.
\n\u201cThe current federal rulers have no concerns with peace or development\u201d, he remarked and stated that they have come into government through alleged regime change conspiracy with the only aim to serve alien interests and protect the looted wealth of the nation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
