    Minister for Science and Technology Agha Hassan Baloch Wednesday ordered an inquiry committee to probe the allegations levelled against the wife of PTI leader Shahbaz Gill for not completing her university scholarship within the mandated time.

    Last month it came to light that the PTI leader’s wife Izza Asad Rasool owed around Rs18.6 million to the Commission on Science and Technology for Sustainable Development in the South (COMSATS) University, Islamabad.

    The federal minister, according to a statement issued in this regard, has ordered the science and technology ministry to form a committee and include officials from the ministry in it.

    The order comes after the varsity sent details of the matter to the ministry. Baloch said following the recovery of the funds, they would be used to educate underprivileged children.
