LAHORE:

Chief Minister of Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has directed that divisional and district law & order committees should regularly hold meetings to improve the law & order situation in the province.

While issuing directions to the provincial cabinet committee for law & order from Saudi Arabia, the CM repeated that nothing is more important than the protection of life and property of the people.

The law enforcement agencies should remain alert and vigilant while making every effort to protect the people, he continued. The CM asked the RPOs and DPOs to efficiently perform their duties and personally monitor law & order situations in their areas. The role of police and law enforcement agencies was praiseworthy in maintaining peace in the country and the officials sacrificing their lives in the line of duty are the heroes of the nation, concluded the CM.

Meanwhile, the chief minister has directed to ensure availability of fever medicine at medical stores so that the patients may not face any difficulty in this regard.

While issuing directions to the minister and secretary of the health department from Saudi Arabia, the CM directed the concerned officials to submit a report after inspecting the records of medicine companies.

The supply and demand should be regularly checked to ensure the availability of fever medicine and action be initiated against those creating an artificial shortage, he asked.
