Khalid Khan, Mr. Shaikh Jawaid Mir, Legal Advisor PALPA & Mr. Shahnawaz Salahuddin whose work has been commendable.
The Chairman PIAC in view of the concern shown by PALPA and the multifaceted challenges being confronted by PIA as well as with an intent of finding solutions to enable PIA to enhance its revenues, cut costs and improve organizational efficiencies has been pleased to form a Way Forward Committee.
The PIAC management has entrusted this uphill task to Capt. Suhail Baluch, President PALPA and since the rejuvenation of PIA is directly linked to the survival of all its employees therefore, such task has been accepted by him.
