Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif on Sunday blamed that industrial sector of Punjab is being targeted through worst load shedding and suspension of gas supply to defame the PML-N-led provincial government.
Talking to journalists after inaugurating Fatima Jinnah Park at Green Town, Shahbaz said that despite the fact that Punjab had a major role in the total agriculture and industrial production of the country, the discriminatory attitude of the federal government had hit the two sectors of the province hard.
He said that the energy crisis was the issue of the entire country but Punjab was targeted intentionally leaving thousands of factory workers and labourers unemployed. Shahbaz termed the recent increase in power tariff as a bomb on the common man, who was already crushed due to inflation and poor policies of the federal government.
He said that protest against the discriminatory attitude of the federal government would be recorded on every forum but dues of the federation would not be blocked.
Separately, inaugurating a PML-N office on Raiwind Road, Shahbaz said that the entire nation would have to unite to rid the country of plunderers of national wealth.
