LAHORE
Punjab Minister for Information and Culture, Azma Bokhari, has said that instead of criticising Punjab’s development and welfare projects, the Sindh government should concentrate on improving its own performance.
In a statement on Friday, Bokhari invited Sindh’s Information Minister, Sharjeel Memon, to Lahore, saying: “Come to Lahore, we will show you the scale of work being done in Punjab, so you may also learn.”
She welcomed Sindh’s decision to replicate Punjab’s Pink Scooties Programme, adding that Punjab has no objection to such initiatives. However, she advised that any suggestions to the federal government should be made with wisdom and seriousness.
The minister highlighted Punjab’s historic farmer-friendly measures, including Rs. 55 billion relief in 2024, Rs. 98 billion in 2025, and an allocation of Rs. 129.8 billion for agriculture in the current fiscal year.
