Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar chaired a meeting at his office to review the progress on development schemes in the Koh-e-Suleman area of DG Khan. SMBR Babar Hayat Tarar, CEO Urban Unit and others attended the meeting while commissioner and DC DG Khan participated through video link.
The CM directed to finalize the master plans of THQ hospital and tehsil complex without delay adding that land should also be earmarked for judges and lawyers’ chambers. Similarly, the soil and water quality testing should be completed without delay, he added.
Alongside, expansion in the scope of Koh-e-Suleman Development Authority should be studied and the public welfare schemes under district development package be completed within the timeframe in DG Khan; he added and termed district development package a historic step to ensure holistic development and inclusive growth in the province.
Similarly, the CM explained that Sorra Dam would benefit the people of the area by providing water for irrigation purposes to boost agriculture. This project has been designed to meet the needs of the locals, he stated. Regrettably, no passed government ever thought of storing hill- torrents’ waters and resources were wasted by starting exhibitory projects while ignoring the real needs of the people. The past rulers compounded the difficulties of the people instead of healing their wounds, he concluded.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has regretted that the opposition was pursuing an agenda that is contrary to the national interest and added that the PDM does not like the national development.
In a statement, the CM said the people need development and prosperity, instead of anarchy. However, the opposition has disappointed the people on every national issue, he maintained.
In fact, the opposition has wasted its energies on lip-service, he said and emphasized that there is no room for the politics of anarchy. Those engaged in politics of chaos should realize facts as the people are fully aware of their dual nature, he said.
The CM advised the opposition to understand that people cannot be served with empty statements.
