Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar Sunday said that a committee has been constituted for setting up new districts and tehsils across the province and new districts and tehsils will be established in the light of recommendations put forth by the constituted committee headed by Provincial Law Minister Raja Basharat.
"The process of consultations with the national and provincial assembly members belonging to eight divisions has been completed. Elected representatives have put forth their recommendations for resolving problems of their respective constituencies," he said, adding: "Comprehensive discussions also took place about development schemes with regard to Annual Development Programmes for the next fiscal year." Development works will be undertaken by taking due consultations of elected representatives in their respective national and provincial assembly constituencies, he stated.
He said there will be no compromise on the respect and dignity of national and provincial assembly members. Respect of elected representatives is my own respect and the whole team will keep on advancing forward with unity in its journey for rendering public service, he emphasized.
The CM said the PTI government will further improve education and health facilities not only in cities but also in far-flung areas. Water filtration plants will be installed under Aab Pak Authority and rupees eight billion have been allocated for the said purpose. During the second phase of Naya Pakistan Manzlein Asaan Programme repair and construction of rural roads will continue and every area will be granted special funds for the construction and repair of roads, he added.
Usman Buzdar further said that those areas which lagged behind in its journey of progress will be brought to their due rights and PTI government will improve public facilities in these areas. Every work is being carried out on merit in Punjab. "I have neither allowed anyone to work against merit nor will allow anyone to do so in future also", he stated.
A policy has also been chalked out to grant ownership rights to the Katchi Abadies, he said. Mafias grabbing state lands will be taken to their logical end and operation against land grabbers will continue without any relent or pressure, he said.
