Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif has said that the PML-N government has resolved to end corruption- a stance that has resulted in an improved international ranking of Pakistan in the fight against corruption.
The CM also said that the past leaders looted the national resources and ‘filled their pockets’ under the cover of development projects. “Their wrong policies and corruption have tarnished the image of Pakistan at international level. However, Pakistan is now on the track of prosperity,” he remarked.
He expressed these views while talking to the members of the provincial assembly who visited him on Wednesday. “The development projects of PML-N speak volumes of transparency and the high standards we have followed. We have ensured the efficient use of resources and public money,” the chief minister said.
“We will continue our journey without paying heed to the unfair criticism of elites who have no interest in the well-being of the common man.”
“People are benefitting from our economic policies as these policies not only have been acknowledged by the international institutions but also have gained the confidence of the nation,” He further added.
“We have set a precedent by ending plunders, favouritism and nepotism which has helped us saving billions of rupees of national exchequer. Public service is our mission and we will continue it come what may,” he said.
He directed MPAs to strengthen bonds with local people and address their issues promptly. Members who visited him included Iqbal Chunnar, Rana Muhammad Afzal Khan, Mian Fida Hussain Watto, former MNA Sheikh Waqas Akram among others.
