CM Punjab congratulates PM Shehbaz on successful China visit

Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz Sharif on Sunday congratulated Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on undertaking a successful visit to China.

Maryam paid tributes to Shehbaz Sharif for his endeavours being undertaken for the progress and prosperity of Pakistan. The chief minister said, “Under the guidance of Quaid Muhammad Nawaz Sharif, the national economy is treading on the road to progress and prosperity and the completion of CPEC projects will be expedited. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif after undertaking a successful visit to the UAE, paved the way for the country’s progress and prosperity by virtue of excellent diplomacy in China as well.”

The CM added, “Time has proved that China and other countries repose their complete trust in the leadership of PMLN. The willingness of Chinese investors to contribute their valuable partnership to uplift Pakistan’s economy will open new avenues of economic progress. Pak-China relations are stronger like a cliff and lofty. The resolve of Pakistan and China to work in unison for peace and stability along with attaining progress and prosperity is highly praiseworthy.”

She said the country was moving ahead by leaps and bounds towards better economic conditions. The reduction in the prices of flour, bread and other essential edibles is welcoming, she said, adding under the dynamic leadership of Nawaz Sharif, the PMLN government was working day in and day out for the economic prosperity of the people of Pakistan.

Meanwhile, a revolutionary decision has been made by the government to bring an overwhelming change in the government and governance system in Punjab. For the first time in the history of Punjab, a decision has been made to undertake massive reshuffling of ministries and departments under which downsizing of surplus, inept and deficit-prone institutions will be carried out. Additional institutions working for similar assignments will be abolished.

Chief Minister Punjab Maryam approved the restructuring project.

The performance of official-affairs will be eased by reducing the number of ministries and those institutions which work for similar assignments will be merged. By undertaking the restructuring and downsizing process, the performance of institutions and public service mechanisms will be made simple, easy and swift.

Restructuring and downsizing will accrue savings worth billions of rupees. A fiscal space will also be created by carrying out massive reduction in the annual expenditures of the government.
