PESHAWAR, Oct 5: Provincial Senior Minister Sirajul Haq has said that improving the living standard of the poor and promoting Islamic values is the agenda of the Muttahida Majlis-i-Amal government.

Addressing public meetings in different villages of Samarbagh in Lower Dir district on Thursday, he said the MMA would never betray the confidence of people and it would ensure fulfilment of public aspirations at every cost.

He said the provincial government had ensured peace, law and order and supremacy of merit besides restoring honour and dignity of the citizens.

He said every cabinet member was endeavouring to resolve public grievances.

Nobody would see any outlaws at homes and hujras of the ministers like the past regimes, he said.—PPI
