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 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 had 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 arrangements for getting them visas.

When his spokesman was contacted, he said Raja is getting so many invitations from abroad, but it is not confirmed that 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 Kashmir problem is not in the US or Europe. At that time, he had raised voice against foreign visits as an opposition leader.
