HAVELIAN: Former MPA and PML-N leader Sardar Aurangzeb Nalotha has met Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in Peshawar and formally called for steps toward the establishment of Hazara Province.
During the meeting, Nalotha highlighted what he described as the longstanding deprivation of Hazara Division, saying the region had faced persistent grievances over the past 13 years and had not received a major development package during that period.
He urged the federal government to address the longstanding demands of the people of Hazara and take measures to resolve the region’s socio-economic challenges.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif assured Nalotha of the federal government’s cooperation and promised a special, comprehensive development package aimed at addressing the fundamental issues facing Hazara Division and reducing its socio-economic deprivation.
