NOWSHERA, Oct 24: The district Nazim of Nowshera, Pervez Khattak, on Tuesday assured the council members that their suggestions would be accommodated in the district and tehsil administration budget.

In his speech at the council, Mr Khattak said the district administration had done its best to come up with a balanced budget and added that all union councils would be given due share in the development funds.

He told the education committee to prepare workable suggestions so that the issue of fee could be resolved once and for all. He said the issue of girls college for Nowshera had already been taken up with the government, and hoped to get approved a degree college for the district soon.
