Inaugurating a gas supply scheme for Pind Dadu and other development schemes in Ranyal Union Council of Rawalpindi district on Saturday, Federal Minister for Aviation Ghulam Sarwar Khan said he was confident that the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) would sweep the next elections on the basis of its performance and good governance.
Addressing a public meeting, he said the gas facility was being provided in the locality at an estimated cost of Rs6 million.
He said the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government was committed to providing all basic facilities to the citizens at their doorstep.
"Providing basic amenities of life to the public is the mission of the PTI government," he added.
Ghulam Sarwar said the government was taking all possible measures to control the prices of daily used items and termed the inflation an “artificial phenomenon”.

The minister said opposition parties were trying to mislead the public by presenting distorted facts and figures about the national economy and protect their ill-gotten money.
The minister promised that youths would soon get good news on the employment situation from the government.
He termed the Ring Road project inevitable for the development of Rawalpindi. He expressed that it was a national project that would create thousands of employment opportunities.
Later, during a brief talk with media, he said it was the leadership of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz that had promoted the culture of corruption in the country and made their personal assets not only in Pakistan but also abroad.
Ghulam Sarwar noted that ex-Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and he had started politics together and that people could see a huge difference between their assets.
The minister said the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) was destined to fail as their all leaders were following their personal agendas and even they were not on the same page.
