Extending full cooperation with provinces to eliminate corruption, poverty: PM

KARACHI: Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government and the allied political parties were pursuing the common agenda of eliminating corruption, poverty reduction and improving public service.

In a meeting with a delegation of allied political parties in Karachi on Wednesday, he said that for fulfillment of its agenda, the federal government was cooperating with all provinces particularly Sindh.
