LAHORE: Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar has said that the model of civil secretariat in Bahawalpur and Multan has been approved which will be constructed on modern lines.
The chief minister disclosed this during a one-on-one meeting with Provincial Livestock Minister Sardar Hasnain Bahadur Dareshk and Secretary-General Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Southern Punjab Ali Raza Dareshk, who called on him at the CM office on Sunday.
"Every promise made with the people of Southern Punjab will be fulfilled. For the first time, the era of sustainable development has been started in Southern Punjab under the leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan," Buzdar claimed and alleged that funds for Southern Punjab were utilized in "favourite" districts during the previous regimes.
Buzdar told the meeting that former rulers use Southern Punjab province to further their political gains. He said that special funds allocated for Southern Punjab can only be utilized there and secretaries appointed in the Southern Punjab have been "empowered". Meanwhile, the chief minister in a statement lauded the accountability process of both the federal and provincial governments.
