Governor House Khyber Pakhtunkhwa opened its doors for public starting today.

According to Radio Pakistan, the Governor House will remain open for public every Sunday.

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf government had announced to open official buildings for public use soon after taking charge.

On its opening day, students of two girls collages are visiting the building, with the Governor House being opened to families in the future.

“We are very excited to have a chance to visit the Governor House,” one of the students visiting the KP Governor House said.

Another student said, “This is the first time we have a chance to see what is inside the building. I am looking forward to it.

On September 7, the Sindh Governor House opened its door for citizens. The public has been allowed to walk in the spacious garden and permitted to enter the historic building.

Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry on Sunday asserted that all state institutions stand by Prime Minister Imran Khan and are working together to lead the country toward development. While talking to journalists, Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry said that before Khan came to power, every politician thought that “corruption was their right”. However, PM Khan had ended tolerance for corruption after he assumed office, Chaudhry claimed. When people do not have money to buy medicines then how can a prime minister live lavishly?” said Fawad Chaudhry. “They [the previous government] had ordered cars worth Rs980 million for one SAARC conference,” Chaudhry said, adding that the maintenance expenditure of the cars amounted to Rs350m.

Ben Stokes was named the man of the match for his two-for coupled with an 89-run knock in the first innings.
