LAHORE:

Punjab Local Governments Secretary Dr Irshad Ahmad visited various model cemeteries in Lahore on Tuesday to review the ongoing development work.

He gave a deadline to the contractors to complete the work at Soy Aasal Model Cemetery by March 30.

The official said the development work of Kahna Nou Model Cemetery should also be completed by May.

“Due to the increase in population in the city, there is less space for graves. In such a situation, the early construction of these model cemeteries is very important,” he remarked. He said that with the completion of the construction of model cemeteries, the Punjab Shehr-e-Khmushan Authority would provide bathing and burial services to the poor and deserving people across the province. Dr Irshad Ahmad said funds had been released by the finance department for the authority, from which the payments to the contractors would be made on time.
