Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Abdul Quddus Bizenjo has said that the size of the development budget would be increased by keeping the unnecessary expenses to a bare minimum.
He shared these views while talking to provincial ministers and members of provincial assembly (MPAs) who called on him at CM Secretariat.
The current political situation of the country and issues related to the preparation of the budget for the next financial year came under discussion in the meeting.
