LAHORE: Opposition Leader in the Punjab Assembly, Malik Ahmad Khan Bhachar, has alleged that the chief minister has turned the province into a “Kachra Punjab” instead of “Suthra Punjab”, saying that garbage piles can be seen anywhere, including Lahore.

In a video message on Wednesday, Mr Bhachar alleged that the chief minister squandered Rs400 billion only on advertisements of Suthra Punjab campaign.

The PTI leader said the CM has imposed “martial law” in the province, alleging that a perpetual crackdown against the party workers was going on.

He alleged that the police also pounced upon the PTI workers who organised an iftar party at Narowal.

He said the PML-N’s was a “rejected” government and would soon meet its “logical end”.

COORDINATORS: PTI Punjab chief organiser Aliya Hamza has appointed women coordinators to hold activities across the province.

She also appointed focal persons to coordinate with the labour unions and the textile sector.

According to a notification, Madiha Imran has been appointed coordinator for central Punjab; Zubia Khalid for north Punjab; Monal Kamal for south Punjab and Iram Zahra for west Punjab. Ms Fiza Alam will work for quality assurance.

Party worker Immad Hassan Qureshi has been given the role of focal person for labour unions, while Haji Basharat Dogar appointed as focal person for textile sector to advance the cause of the PTI.
