Punjab Minister for Industries & Trade Mian Aslam Iqbal has said the economy is improving due to the prudent economic policies of the PTI government.
While addressing a consultative meeting of traders at LCCI here on Monday, he said the industry is moving with full speed and the large quantum of export orders is difficult to meet. The government has devised a mechanism to provide human resource according to the industry needs. On the other side, he regretted the unwaged political elements are moving from pillar to post to achieve their political ends. Mian Aslam Iqbal advised the opposition to keep their morale high as they would get full reward of their labour in the jail. The opposition is bent upon closing down businesses while holding meetings during the second corona attack, he added.
The minister made it clear that action will be initiated in case of violation as public meetings are banned under Covid-19 Ordinance. He regretted that the opposition is trying to spread anarchy for hiding its corruption by befooling the masses and added that PPP and PML-N have always befooled the people. They played with the sentiments of the people and are united for making it to the power corridors, he added. One ruling family purchased costly Surrey Palace with the looted money while the other family made properties in London, he deplored. Aslam Iqbal said both the families will lead the story when a book will be complied about political corruption in Pakistan. They are not afraid of any humiliation for making it to power corridors, he said. The Sharif family made politics a successful business.
LCCI President Mian Tariq Misbah and others apprised the minister about their problems and appealed to the government to stop public gatherings and meetings to stop the spread of corona.
