Parliamentary Affairs minister Dr Babar Awan has said the government would leave no stone unturned to resolve the people's problems including price hike. He said that government is planning to reduce prices of the petroleum products that will play a role in reduction of prices of essential commodities.
Speaking at a meeting in suburbs here on Sunday, he said that government was keen to resolve people's problems. The government, he said, would tolerate no hindrance in its development agenda.
"PPP-led government is not against the reinstatement of the judges but they wanted them reinstated in accordance with the constitution. Referring to some relief measures taken by the government, he remarked that despite the on going financial downturn across the globe, government was duly credited to start Benazir Income Support Programme. "This programme is being launched to directly assist the poor," said the minister.
He said the employees, who were earlier ousted whether in the name of right sizing or down sizing, have been reinstated by the government. The federal cabinet, he said, has approved a large amount to compensate and accommodate them from the back dates. "We are the one who raised the slogan of bread, cloth and shelter for everyone and we are going to accomplish our promise made to the people during the elections", said Babar.
