to boost the soft image of KPK. It is further
expected that more tourists will be attracted.

is also expected to improve with better
logistics and expanding publicity and trend
throughout the region and finally around the
globe.

scheme are expected to directly contribute
to the improvement of existing
assets/creation of new assets and to enable
the corporation to be mobile in the field in
order to peruse the notions of promotion of
tourism through income generation by the
local communities through small scale
enterprising activities for elimination of
poverty.
iii. Environmental impact
The initial environmental examination
indicates that the proper disposal of
sanitation would help in maintaining clean
environment.

during current FY and therefore, no
escalation of cost is expected.

through 30-06-2011, but the Shandur Polo festival falling on 7-9 July 2011 as well a
