Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) Prime Minister Sardar Abdul Qayyum Niazi Monday took notice of flour shortage in different parts of AJK and directed the authorities concerned to ensure availability of flour in markets across the state.
He said it was the sole responsibility of the government to provide facilities to the citizens during the holy month of Ramzan, he said.
The prime minister directed the authorities concerned to ensure full supply of flour at rates fixed by the government. “Where there is shortage of flour, the officer stationed there will be held accountable for it,” the prime minister said adding that no laxity would be tolerated in this regard and a strict action would be taken against those responsible.
He also issued orders to the commissioners and deputy commissioners to ensure implementation of the Ramzan package.—Our Correspondent
