LAHORE: Punjab Governor Chaudhry Muhammed Sarwar stressed on the importance of increased investors and education in Pakistan on Monday, during a press conference in Lahore.

Investments are down due to lawlessness and terrorism, said Sarwar aiming to improve this situation.

Seven million children are out of school in Pakistan, and with the help of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif, one million children will be put into schools every year, he added.

Having served in British Parliament is not a deterrent, added Sarwar,   who gave up his British nationality to become Governor.

Sarwar was recommended by the prime minister and appointed governor by President Asif Ali Zardari.

Arid Agriculture University of Rawalpindi has already taken thousands of kanals of rich agriculture land of villege Koont, payment made to the these ordinary farmers was 60% less that the original value of this land. Now the university is trying to grab more land, this includes houses of villegers and rich agriculture land. Please take notice of this matter as it is really a matter of roti for hundreds of ordinary farmers.
