LAHORE, Dec 23: The Chief Minister's Inspection Team has completed inquiries against 300 Punjab government officials and submitted reports for further action.

The information was given at a meeting held here on Thursday to review the progress of inquiries with Minister for CMIT Col Shuja Khanzada (retired) in the chair and attended by team chairman Arsalan Khan and members.
