Special Assistant to the Prime M

He stated this while addressing a press conference at Jinnah House in Sialkot. Provincial M
inister for Special Education Punjab Chaudhry Muhammad Akhlaq and Vice Chairman Anti Corruption Establishment Punjab Brigadier (retd) Aslam Ghumman were also present.

Dar said that three PML-N members of provincial assembly (MPAs) were in contact with the
PTI in Sialkot and their names would also be disclosed in a few days.
Some days ago, Shehbaz Sharif tried to prove himself the world’s most honest man in a press conference, though
he had nothing to do with the British court case, Dar added.
The SAPM said, “I wish that Shehbaz Sharif would hold a press conference with the characters of Ramzan Sugar Mills.” He said Shehbaz Sharif was not holding any press conference on the ongoing cases in Pakistan. He was not giving any details to the media.
The SAPM said that the government had not submitted any request to the National Crime Agency (NCA) of the UK to check their accounts. He said that due to corona pandemic and various other reasons, inflation h
ad gripped the entire world. Dar said that the government was working hard to control price hike.
He said that under the Kamyab Jawan Programme, interest-free loans were being issued. The government was going to give targeted subsidy to the deprived class, which would provide relief to them, he added.
He said that corruption would never be tolerated and the PTI government would not support corrupt people at all.
Dar said that under the Punjab Intermediate Cities Improvement Investment Programme (PICIIP), Rs17 billion were being spent on replacement of water supply lines, upgradation of sewerage system, supply of state-of-the-art solid waste management machinery, water treatment plants, traffic re-engineering and parks upgradation.
