The inaugural session for the auction of Federal Government Properties was held on Monday in Islamabad where Federal Minister for Maritime Affairs, Ali Haider Zaidi was the chief guest and Federal Minister for Privatisation Mohammedmian Soomro, SAPM OPHRD Zulfiqar Abbas Bukhari attended the inaugural session.
Federal minister Mohammedmian Soomro said that this is a substantial step; we are privatising 17 other entities simultaneously. He further said that the transparency is our prime focus as directed by PM Imran Khan. He urged people to come forward and show interest and participate in the bidding, as the benefit ultimately goes to the country.
The money will be used for debt retirement and poverty alleviation. Minister Privatisation said that the work rendered by the Inter-Ministerial Committee is impeccable and must be appreciated, and I once again reiterate that come forward and show interest because without the cooperation of the people of Pakistan this couldn’t be materialized.
SAPM on oversees Pakistanis & HRD Zulfi Bukhari said that it is a great step of the government to auction the dead Properties which were rather straining the state resources.
