Monitoring system being developed to ensure timely utilization of funds of ADP: CM

Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar has said the government will continue its journey of public service with sincere hard work as people want progress and prosperity.

In a statement, he regretted that the opposition parties are least concerned with the progress and development hence they have put the national interest aside.

The Chief Minister, however, said the designs of the conspirators will be foiled yet again and they will not be allowed to hinder the journey of development.

Earlier, Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar has said strict monitoring of development projects will be done to ensure transparency and timely utilization of funds.
