KARACHI: Pakistan Muslim League - Nawaz's chief Nawaz Sharif on Tuesday met with office bearers of labour and trade unions of various government institutions and emphasised that the institutions should improve in terms of delivery, DawnNews reported.

During the meeting in Karachi, Nawaz said organisations function only through the hard work put in by their labour.

He said national institutions were failing due to the government's inefficiency and blamed the government for institutional deterioration of the Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) and the Pakistan Steel Mills (PSM).

Nawaz said the PML-N had always raised its voice for workers’ rights.
