Corrigendum

Published

This is apropos news item “KP government unveils five year development plan”, which appeared in our Metro section on December 15.

The sub-title of the aforementioned report wrongly quoted the minister, saying: “He doesn’t know where required Rs4tr will come from”.

In fact, the minister for finance was merely highlighting the issue of narrow revenue base in KP and where and how did he intend to explore new avenues to generate resources for the ambitious five-year plan. The error is regretted.
