Reviewing the briefings, the Provincial Minister made it clear that unnecessary delays in development projects will not be tolerated and that the timely completion of public welfare schemes remains a top priority of the incumbent KP government.
He said that the provision of clean drinking water and sanitation is a basic right of the people, and the current provincial government is utilizing all available resources to ensure provision of these facilities. He directed the concerned officers to strengthen field monitoring, ensure that no compromise is made on quality, and complete all projects with transparency.
He assured that the government will extend full cooperation in the approval of new projects and provision of funds in line with the needs of the districts, so that the supply of safe drinking water can be ensured for the people across the province, including remote and underdeveloped areas.
