The released prisoners can spend Eid-ul-Fitr with their family members.

Mohsin Naqvi urged them not to indulge into any sort of quarrel or fight after being released and have to spend their lives like a responsible citizen. Mohsin Naqvi announced to give a special package for the jail staff members on the pattern of police martyred package.

Mohsin Naqvi disclosed that the salary package of jail staff members will be reviewed and promotion cases of jail staff members will be disposed off at the earliest. Mohsin Naqvi apprised that further facilitation and ease will be provided in the meetings of prisoners with their near and dear relatives as well as close family members during Eid-ul-Fitr holidays.

Meanwhile, Caretaker Chief Minister Punjab Mohsin Naqvi has tasked the police and administration to ensure the best arrangements for cleanliness and smooth flow of traffic, overcoming collection of excess rent and one wheeling in the province. He ordered action against the transporters who collect the excess fare from passengers and said that complaints of passengers regarding overcharging are not acceptable in any case. Indiscriminate action should be taken against transporters who collect the excess fare, he said. The officers of the transport department and administration should be present in the field; checking should be done at the bus stands and action be taken on overcharging. He directed that the officials and administrative officers of the transport department should personally check and ensure action against those who charge more than the fixed fare.
