LAHORE: Punjab Information Minister Azma Bukhari expressed her sorrow regarding the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa ministers’ use of language, saying that Punjab let it go with patience.
Bukhari at a press conference in Lahore, praised Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz for being a powerhouse in making life better for Punjab’s disadvantaged citizens, no matter the unwarranted tirade from the naysayers.
“The behavior and language of some KP provincial ministers during the Punjab Assembly session was regrettable,” Bukhari lamented. She was adamant that the KP ministers pick a more appropriate way of expressing themselves, since this really shows their background and the way they have been molded.
The Information Minister ushered in the provincial government’s achievements with CM Maryam Nawaz at the forefront, like the transformation of education, health, security, and public welfare areas. She mentioned that the Safe and Clean Punjab initiative has not only made the province cleaner but also tidier while under the Apna Ghar Apni Chhat program 50,000 houses have been constructed and an additional 75,000 are planned. Furthermore, farmers have been given PKR 250 billion through the Kisan Card, and students have been awarded electric bicycles.
Bukhari went on to stress that the security of Punjab has been enhanced via the installation of drones and digital systems, and these facilities will be having a long-term positive effect on the people of the province.

KP CM visited the house of Shah Mahmood Qureshi
Earlier, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi paid an unexpected visit to the house of senior PTI leader Shah Mehmood Qureshi, where he was warmly welcomed by Shah Mehmood Qureshi’s son Zain Qureshi.
Shah Mehmood Qureshi’s daughter Mehrbanu Qureshi was also present with Zain Qureshi on the occasion.
Talking to the media, Chief Minister Sohail Afridi said, “This is my Pakistan, I will go wherever my heart desires, I do not need any justification to roam around Pakistan.” He added that he had come to Lahore to meet all his organizational friends.
Sohail Afridi said that the government had sent a formal letter to meet the jailed leadership, but there was no response. However, he is visiting their homes to express solidarity with his imprisoned colleagues.
The Chief Minister said that he is neither being allowed to meet his party founder Imran Khan nor the leadership. He termed the government’s behavior as a “sign of mental inferiority” and said that under the Constitution Protection Movement, it is their responsibility to hold a dialogue with the government, and if they need to run a street movement, they will do so vigorously.
On this occasion, Sohail Afridi clarified that his only aim is to establish political contacts and express solidarity with his colleagues, and he is determined to fulfill his responsibility despite any obstacles or opposition.
