Musical night

He was speaking at the extravagant cultural and musical night held in connection with the 13th Cholistan Desert Jeep Rally in front of the Derawar Fort's gate.
The minister said that when Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) got into power, the country's economy was badly hurt, terrorism had surrounded the whole country and in those difficult times, Nawaz Sharif and Mian Shahbaz Sharif put the country on the way to development with their vision. He said that the Cholistan is the carrier of more than 5,000 years old Hakra Civilisation and the Cholistan is the asset of Pakistan's great archaeological heritage. He added that Cholistan's hard-working people are a great asset to the country who have kept alive the thousands year old Cholistani Civilisation.
The minister said that the chief minister of Punjab has taken revolutionary steps to make it comparable to other parts of the country in the likes of road network, water supply schemes for the provision of clean water, construction of tobas for the storage of water, distribution of free cattle among Cholistanis for the development of livestock sector and established schools to spread the light of education to the remote areas of Cholistan.
