Potential for economic, social, and cultural development in Chitral, and addressing the capacity gaps in the relevant institutions to respond to the emerging challenges with regard to access of people could benefit in the economic development of the Chitral area.
The speakers expressed these views at a seminar organized by the Aga Khan Economic Planning Board in collaboration with Aga Khan Council for Chitral on 'Development Opportunities and Challenges of Chitral.' It was part of the series of events arranged by various agencies of Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN) to mark the Golden Jubilee Celebrations of Prince Karim al-Hussaini Aga Khan, 49th hereditary Fatimid Imam Caliph, direct lineal descendant of Prophet Muhammad, through his cousin and son-in-law, Aly, the first Imam Caliph, and his wife Fatima, the Prophet's daughter. Prince Aga Khan is the rope of love, wisdom and unity among interpretations of the Faith, and also bridge of confidence between West and Muslims.
Chief Guest Zainullah Khan, Special Finance Secretary of NWFP lauded the efforts of the AKEPB and Aga Khan Council for the initiative of the series.
