Visit of Panagah (shelter home) near Lahore Railway Station
Talking to media-persons during her visit to a Panagah (shelter home) near Lahore Railway Station, she said the government was taking both long term and short term measures to ensure provision of relief and mitigate miseries of the common man.
Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Dr Fidous Ashiq Awan said the government was moving forward on its long and short term policies and reform agenda to put the country’s system, including economy, on track.
Firdous said the past rulers had also initiated a number of so-called programmes for public welfare and poverty alleviation, which further suppressed the poor instead of providing them any relief.
Meanwhile, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting, Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan has regretted that the opposition parties are hatching conspiracies against the government during holy month of Ramazan.
In a tweet, she said hatching conspiracy against democratically elected government in the name of Iftar during the sacred month is regretful.
She said whatsoever the opposition is facing, is the consequence of their ill-intentions.
Dr Firdous said unfortunately, those who created problems for people in the past are now busy in protecting their personal, political and business interests in the name of Iftar parties.
