Azma noted that development projects are being carried out across Punjab without any discrimination — from Attock to Rahim Yar Khan and from Lahore to Sadiqabad.
She further said that a Rs100 billion relief package is being distributed daily among flood-affected citizens, while the ‘Kissan Card’ initiative has become one of the government’s most successful programs.
Under the second phase of the ‘Kissan Card’, farmers have already received Rs100 billion in financial support. Meanwhile, under the ‘Apni Chhat, Apna Ghar’ housing scheme, 110,000 houses are being built — averaging 290 new homes each day.
