CM Buzdar said that the present government gave respect to the provincial legislators, whereas, the previous governments had paralysed the national economy for their personal interests.

On November 24, Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar had directed the concerned authorities to complete all development projects within the stipulated time period.

The Punjab CM in a statement has said that no compromise would be made on the quality of development projects, adding that he would personally monitor progress on development projects and would not allow anyone to interfere in the progress of backward areas.

Progress and prosperity is an inherent right of people belonging to backward areas and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government was returning that right to people living in far-flung areas, concluded Usman Buzdar.
