The two sides agreed to further extend cooperation in the future, said a press release issued here by the CM secretariat. During the meeting, the concerned provincial ministers and administrative secretaries were also present.
On this occasion, the KP CM said that the provincial government valued the support of UNICEF for public welfare and wants more support from UNICEF in some important areas including up-gradation of schools, supply of clean drinking water, sewage, solarization of schools, madrasas and tube wells.
Gandapur said that the government also intended to provide solar energy to deserving families of the province besides providing relief to the people of the districts.
