However due to security measures it was announced that Khan along with Naeem-ul-Haq – the Information Secretary of PTI,[2][3][4] will be residing in Military's secretary house no 1 in PM enclaves of PM housing colony in Islamabad.[5][6][7][8] Khan plans to convert the Official PM house into a public research University.[9][10][11]
- ↑ The salary of Prime Minister of Pakistan is 2 Lakhs 1 thousand per month (2,01,574/month equivalent US$1,323) inclusive of all allowances and exclusive of the taxes, which equates to 24 Lakhs and 18 thousand per annum (PKR2,418,888 equivalent US$15,887).
