AJK PM loves foreign trips

Author: By Sheraz Rathore

ISLAMABAD: AJK Prime Minister Farooq Haider has spent millions from the national exchequer on his foreign trips and he is, once again, ready to fly abroad with his family. On one hand, he is famous for delivering lectures on austerity, but on the other hand he has submitted an application in the Foreign Affairs Ministry that he wants to visit the United Kingdom along with his wife Rubina, son Raja Haider, and security guard Saeed.

In the last seven months, he has visited Europe twice. In the visits he took his private secretary Raja Arshad and servant Zaheer along with him.

In the application, the PM has asked the Foreign Office to make the necessary arrangements to get them visas.

When his spokesman was contacted, he said Raja is receiving many invitations from abroad, but it is not confirmed when he would go, whereas his family has also showed ignorance about the development.

Before coming to power, Raja Farooq Haider was of the view that the resolution of the Kashmir problem does not lie in the US or in Europe. At that time, he had raised voice against foreign visits as an opposition leader.
