Punjab Information Minister Fayyazul Hassan Chohan on Thursday said that difference between the current PTI government under the leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan and previous regimes of “Allied Parties for Corruption” is the prioritization of country’s prosperity and well being of general populace.
He said that the current government’s approach in Gas Infrastructure Development Charges, Karkay Rental Power Plant and IPP cases is a testimony to this effect.
Due to timely and well-coordinated efforts of administration, according to the directions of Prime Minister Imran Khan, government was able to save no less than Rs1,244 billion in these three cases, he added. He said that the previous governments rejected or delayed multiple mega projects only on the premise that they didn’t guarantee huge commissions and kickbacks for the then incumbent rulers.
On the contrary, Prime Minister Imran Khan never hesitates to take difficult and unusual decisions in the larger interest of the country.
He said that PTI is in power, not to loot and plunder, but to preserve national treasure. Fayyazul Hassan Chohan further added that mega projects like Quaid-i-Azam Business Park Sheikhupura and River Ravi Front City were willingly delayed by the previous government of PML-N because their personal interests were not in line with those of the people of Punjab.
