Load-shedding will completely end this year: Shehbaz

Two-way Muzaffargarh-Dera Ghazi Khan road to be completed by June 30, 2018, he added

MUZAFFARGARH: Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif has said the country was facing power outages for the past 15 years and this agony would completely end this.



He expressed theses views while addressing a public gathering in Muzaffargarh on Thursday. Speaking on the occasion, Shehbaz announced that the 90-kilometre two-way Muzaffargarh-Dera Ghazi Khan road would be completed by June 30, 2018. He said macadam roads were being built in villages of South Punjab.

Talking about the better health facilities for people of South Punjab, CM said Recep Tayyip Erdogan Hospital which has 130 beds now, would be upgraded to 250 beds by December 25.



“Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz is working efficiently and honestly for the people of South Punjab,” Shehbaz said. “People who had been maligning PML-N, had never worked for the people of South Punjab and were only involved in corruption,” he remarked. “When dengue hit Peshawar, Khan Sahb was relaxing on mountains,” he said.
