Open assembly: Interior minister unhappy with Pindi police performance
Also inaugurates several development projects.
RAWALPINDI:
Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan came down hard on Rawalpindi’s top cops for their failure to address the complaints of citizens.
The minister expressed these views on Saturday during an open katcheri he held in Dhamial, where senior Rawalpindi police officials were also present before a large number of citizens. The minister stated that it is the prime duty of police to protect the masses and provide them with justice. He asked complainants to write to him directly if the police were bothering them or failing to address crime.
Nisar also visited several parts of NA-52 and NA-53 and addressed public rallies in which he announced a numbers of development projects including building degree colleges for girls and boys in Kashmir Colony, Dhamial. He also allocated Rs6.5 million for the renovation of the Dhamial-Kalyal road.
Addressing a public gathering at Dhamial, the minister said the PML-N was serving the masses round-the-clock and the government has launched a number of development schemes in the country. The minister claimed that Imran Khan wanted to destroy the country by launching protests and shutting down cities, while “we go in the public to get votes on the basis of work and developments schemes,” he said.
Later, the minister also laid the foundation stone of a two-way road from Chakri Bus Terminal to Ganda Kas, Kambrial. Similarly, the minister allocated funds for the construction of a boundary wall around Government Boys High School, Gangwala and the renovation of streets and roads in UC Kohlian Hameed.
