The government approved a Rs20 billion “special allocation” on Thursday for Operation Azm-i-Istehkam, an initiative announced three months ago to combat terrorism and extremism.
The decision was made during a meeting of the cabinet’s Economic Coordination Committee (ECC), which also approved the export of 100,000 tonnes of sugar while exempting sugar mills from responsibility for domestic price hikes.
The ECC meeting, presided over by Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb, sanctioned supplementary grants totalling Rs2.23bn for security forces.
The correct answer to the question: "How much money did the ECC approve as Special allocation for Operation ‘Azm-i-isthkam’?" is "Rs 20 Billion ".
