KHUZDAR: Balochistan Governor Malik Abdul Wali Khan Kakar has said that direct contact and interaction with people helps one to gain first-hand information about the problems of the masses and their quick resolution.

Mr Kakar expressed these views while talking to tribal elders and BNP-M leaders during a visit to Wadh tehsil of Khuzdar on Sunday after assuming the office of the governor.

The governor thanked Sardar Akhtar Jan Mengal and other leaders and workers of Balochistan National Party-Mengal for nominating him as the governor of Balochistan.

On reaching Wadh tehsil, the governor visited the grave of BNP-M founding leader Sardar Attaullah Khan Mengal and laid a floral wreath at his grave and offered fateha for the departed soul.

MPAs Mir Younis Aziz Zehri, Mir Ahmed Nawaz Baloch, senior leaders of BNP-M and local officials, Kalat division commissioner, deputy commissioner and DPO were also present on the occasion.
