Lahore, July 12: Chief Minister Punjab Muhammad Hamza Shahbaz visited SOS Children’s Village on the day of eid and spent quite some time with the abandoned and homeless children living there.
Talking to them, Hamza Shahbaz said that he had come to place his hands of compassion on the heads of orphans on this joyous occasion. The Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) had said that those who love children and spread happiness on their faces will enter ‘Bait-ul-Farah’ in Paradise. He gave eidi to the children as well as the staff of SOS Children’s Village and felicitated them on the occasion of eid. The CM also visited the library and community center and announced to dole out solar panels to convert the building to solar energy. Imran Goraya, Majid Zahoor, commissioner Lahore, secretary information, deputy commissioner and others were also present.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Hamza Shahbaz commended the LWMC and other agencies for their satisfactory arrangements for Eid-al-Adha in the province. In a video message, the CM said that the best arrangements are practical evidence of good governance. The administration followed the instructions regarding sanitation and excellent arrangements were made in small and big cities. Now, the government will work hard and give the province of 2018 back to the people while striving to restore the beauty of Lahore, he added.
While talking to the media afterwards, the CM stated that the State and economy needed to be managed more than politics. In these circumstances, if someone obstructs the affairs of the country in the garb of politics, the nation will never forgive such elements; he added and pointed out that the incumbent government had delivered despite a spate of constitutional crises. Subsidized flour and free medicines are available in all hospitals; he commented. They have lost every grace to even face the public, yet they shamelessly keep referring to the problems they have created. They have approached the election commission to nitpick why people are provided free electricity in the face of skyrocketing price-hike? The people of Punjab are witnesses to the fact that who gave free electricity and who snatched the right to free electricity? he added.
After offering eid prayer, CM Hamza Shahbaz met with PMLN workers in Raiwind. He congratulated them on the occasion of Eid and asserted that PM Shehbaz Sharif will soon give big good news to the people about petrol price as it has become cheaper in the global market.-PR
