Prince Rahim Aga Khan has shown keen interest in exploring investment opportunities across various sectors in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) and reaffirmed his commitment to continued collaboration for the province’s sustainable development.<\/p>\n
The 50th Imam of the Shia Ismaili Muslims who wrapped up his three-day visit to Gilgit-Baltistan (G-B) on Monday expressed these views during a meeting with K-P Chief Minister Sohail Afridi and Governor Faisal Karim Kundi, according to a statement issued by the CM Secretariat.<\/p>\n
CM Afridi visited Lower Chitral on Sunday, where he joined Governor Kundi and other political and government dignitaries in welcoming the Aga Khan on his arrival in the district.<\/p>\n
In a meeting following his arrival, the two sides discussed K-P’s development priorities, investment opportunities, and ongoing initiatives in key sectors, including health, education, tourism, and socioeconomic development.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the media later, the CM said the meeting provided an opportunity for a constructive exchange on K-P’s investment potential, the provincial government’s development agenda, and ongoing efforts aimed at improving public welfare and economic growth.<\/p>\n
The CM acknowledged the Aga Khan Development Network’s longstanding contribution, particularly in the northern regions and Chitral.<\/p>\n
He said these initiatives in healthcare, education, community development, and social welfare have had a transformative impact on local communities.<\/p>\n
He further stated that discussions also covered the proposed establishment of Aga Khan University and Aga Khan Hospital facilities in Peshawar.<\/p>\n
Afridi reiterated that the provincial government remains fully committed to advancing world class education and healthcare services, facilitating investment, and promoting inclusive and sustainable development across the province.<\/p>\n
He emphasized that all available resources are being mobilized to translate this vision into tangible outcomes for the people of the province.<\/p>\n
