Federal Minister for Poverty Alleviation and Social Safety Shazia Marri has said that the Sindh Government was striving hard to provide quality education to the future generation of the province. The minister expressed these remarks while speaking as a chief guest at the 26th annual parents’ day of the Cadet College Sanghar here on Saturday. She informed that the provincial government has also been engaged in establishing quality education institutions in far-flung areas of the province including Achro Thar.
Sincere efforts are also being made to improve the living standard of the poor people by providing all basic facilities including electricity and safe drinking water, she added. The minister said that the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) was fully committed to developing the country and improving the socio-economic condition of the masses. This was the reason why the PPP became a part of the federal government, she added.
The minister said the recent unprecedented heavy rains and floods had badly hit the country, particularly Sindh damaging the infrastructure and severely affecting around 30 million people. After rescue and relief operations, the government is making all-out efforts for the rehabilitation of the rains and floods-affected people, she said and highly appreciated the role of the Pakistan Navy in its rescue and relief measures for rains and floods-affected people of the country.
