QUETTA: Provincial Chief Secretary Capt (retd) Fazeel Asghar has urged upon the government officials to keep their doors open for the people and address their issues on a priority basis.

He shared these views while chairing a meeting of Pakistan Citizens Portal in Quetta.

“The government employees should show sincerity in their work as, without dedication, we cannot solve the problems of people,” Asghar said.

“Balochistan government is taking serious steps to make access to education, health and clean drinking water easy. We are committed to addressing the issues of people and want to provide relief to them at their doorsteps,” he added.

The chief secretary directed the divisional commissioners to constitute committees under assistant commissioners to monitor the progress and quality of development projects.

He said that monthly meetings would be held to check the implementation and action taken against public complaints lodged through Pakistan Citizens Portal.

Separately, while chairing a meeting on Kacchi Canal, the chief secretary remarked that following the completion of the project, the province would usher in a new era of development that would increase the agricultural production manifold and boost the economy of the province and improve the quality of life of a common man.

The meeting was informed that the first phase of the Kachhi Canal had been completed through which 102,000 acres of land would be cultivated, while work on the second phase was underway.

He directed the authorities for timely completion of all projects including the Kacchi Canal and warned that compromise on quality of work would not be tolerated.
