The government issued the official notification of Dar’s appointment, confirming his selection for a three-year term.
Last month, authorities completed the interview phase for the DG CAA position, considering 11 candidates, including Acting DG Nadir Shafi Dar.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has appointed Nadir Shafi Dar as the new Director General (DG) of the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).
After a thorough selection process, Dar emerged as the Prime Minister’s choice to lead the authority.
Nadir Shafi Dar now faces the significant task of overseeing Pakistan’s aviation sector, with one of his key challenges being the resumption of Pakistani airlines’ flights to the UK and Europe—an issue that has been of critical concern for the industry.
