Former finance minister Muhammad Ishaq Dar has said on Friday that deposits in his bank’s account are the property of welfare institutions like Hajvairi Trust and Hajvairi foundation.
Ishaq Dar in a statement issued from London said that thousands of people are receiving food items, medical aid and educational scholarships out of his deposited money. Presently he is looking after more than 100 orphans, the statement added.
He said these institutions are not collecting donations but are purely running on his endowment. He said this charity helped around 250 orphans to have an independent and respectable life.
He declared that he would continue to donate his savings for the welfare purpose, enabling the poor to stand on their own feet.
