South Punjab Secretariat is functional: CM​

Public problems being solved, says Usman Buzdar​


LAHORE - Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar Tuesday claimed that the South Punjab Secretariat was functional and peoples’ problems were being resolved at the local level.




“The people of South Punjab have been given their rights for the first time as the government is fulfilling its promises made with the people”, he said while talking to Parliamentarians, who called him at his office here. He regretted that the past government befooled the residents of South Punjab through hollow slogans and maintained that South Punjab districts would have been developed if resources were not spent on areas of choice.

He alleged that the past rulers used South Punjab province for promoting their politics, while the people continued to languish in the quagmire of poverty. “It is satisfying that an era of composite development has started by PM Imran Khan as South Punjab funds have been ring-fenced and the credit goes to the PTI government that it has materialized the need of a South Punjab Secretariat”, he said.
Amir Talal Gopang MNA and Syed Muhammad Sibtain Raza MPA apprised the Chief Minister of the problems of their constituencies.




He assured them that their problems would be resolved on priority and reiterated that the journey of composite development and prosperity will be spread to the backward localities. He said the government was following a policy of composite development and required resources were also being provided to backward cities. In the past, he added, funds were provided to some specific cities. Usman Buzdar regretted that opposition obfuscated the people by raising hollow slogans and false claims. Those engaged in negative politics should realise facts as PDM has compounded the difficulties of the people, he added. Usman Buzdar maintained the Opposition was undermining national interest for safeguarding personal stakes.

On the other side, public service is the main agenda of the PTI and the government will work hard to provide various facilities to the citizens, he said.
