Talking to the reporters and party workers at Haji Chahta Goth on his return from Hub, he said the issue of the missing persons was being resolved, adding that he was prepared to talk to militants.
He was of the opinion that pre-empting corruption in the province was the foremost priority of his government. He reiterated his resolve that the corrupt officers and corruption would not be tolerated in the province at any cost.
He said that the provincial cabinet would comprise not more than 20 ministers.
To a question, he said the government would buy 1000 megawatt electricity from Iran to overcome the shortfall of energy in the province.
