Punjab Chief Minister Hamza Shahbaz Sharif has said reduction in prices of petroleum products was the first step towards ensuring relief for the people and disclosed that more good news was awaited.
In a statement issued on Friday, the CM maintained that the incumbent government had taken up the difficult task of fast recovery of the devastated economy and succeeded in rectifying the focus of the national economy.
“The reduction in the prices of petroleum products is the result of the proper economic direction,” he noted and commented that the IMF program was also revived as a result of teamwork.
“Better days are coming,” he maintained. Declining prices of petroleum products are the first spell of good news and the more good news is to come; the CM remarked and added that he would go to any extent to fulfil the promise of public service.
The CM said that he was working day and night to minimise the difficulties of the people. A historic subsidy of Rs200 billion was given to provide subsidised flour to the people; he commented and added that PML-N resolved the problems whenever it took over the reins of the government.
