CHITRAL: In her visit to Kalash Valley, Norwegian Ambassador to Pakistan Cecilie Landsverk said the government of Norway has launched multiple development projects in Chitral to eliminate poverty.
Talking to residents during her visit on Thursday, Landsverk said due to security issues she had to wait for two years to visit the valley and meet the people. “I am happy that the aid sent by the
Norwegian government was utilised by the people of Chitral,” she said.
Landsverk, in a meeting with Kalash people in Rambor, said she is inspired by the peace and brotherhood between Muslims which is an example for the rest of the world. Locals also presented their cultural dance to welcome the diplomat in the dance palace constructed by the Norwegian government.
