GB Assembly seeks special climate fund from Centre

Gilgit-Baltistan lawmakers are urging the federal government to set up a dedicated "green fund" to tackle the melting glaciers and safeguard the region's environment from global warming's effects. The resolution, passed unanimously, also calls for an investigation into how existing climate funds have been used, with opposition leaders alleging corruption. This move highlights the urgency of addressing climate change's impact on vulnerable regions and underscores the need for transparent fund management to ensure effective environmental protection.
