Pakistan Muslim League Quaid (PML-Q) leader Chaudhry Perviaz Elahi has termed the Punjab budget for next fiscal year as ‘public enemy’ and negligence of the provincial government. He said that health, education, agriculture and various important sectors were facing crises but the government put heavy investments just in Metro bus projects.

While addressing press conference at his residence in Lahore, Pervaiz Elahi said that CM Shahbaz Sharif turned surplus province to debt province by taking Rs 500 billion loans. He claimed that taxes were being imposed on farmers while traffic wardens were being used as patwaris. He said all projects of PML-N were just exhibitory. Some Rs 2 billion were spent on each kilometre for Rawalpindi Metro Bus project but no amount was earmarked to make betterments in Rescue 1122, he said.

The PML-Q leader alleged that PM Nawaz Sharif has special kind of love for PM Narendra Modi and he would not have opened his lips if opposition would not have lodged a protest.
