JALALABAD (Pajhwok): The Education Department in eastern Nangarhar province has started planting a fruit garden on its 22.5 acres of land recently reclaimed from usurpers.
Mufti Habib Hazrat Haqqani, Nangarhar education director, inaugurated the garden’s plantation.
He said the land had been previously given to a person under a contract, but he refused to pay the annual rent to the government for a long time.
According to Haqqani, the land, which belongs to the Department of Education, was freed from usurpers and leased to Sahak Agricultural Company for five years.
He said the company will pay 3,200 . . .
