Lahore: Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi Monday said that people want an inquiry against him.

Addressing a news conference at the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Lahore office, he stated that in the month of April, there will be no over-billing in the Lahore Electricity Supply Company (LESCO). The rest of the discos have largely stopped overbilling, though that is their own internal matter.

Mohsin Naqvi added that FIA, especially Lahore Region has played a very good role regarding over-billing, relief of 310 million units was returned to consumers, which was fully supported by the Power Division and Prime Minister and this will continue in the future.

‘An arrest has been made from Sheikhupura, they were involved in a massive over-billing case, earlier two officers were arrested,’ he added.

Mohsin Naqvi said that it is forbidden to arrest the lower level staff, they are not guilty, if the officers put pressure on them, they do this kind of work.

In response to a question, he added that Punjab allocates a quota of its own that how much wheat they have to buy. The decision regarding wheat stock in the country is made by the federal government.

“People definitely want inquiry against me, but thank God that not even one percent I did anything wrong,” stated Mohsin.

He further said that even if something wrong happened, my team was good and my secretary would say that whatever happens, don't do it. I had a good team so they didn't let anything like that happen. Therefore, people will be disappointed regarding the inquiry against me, I have worked for a long time, if there is even a cent in it, I am ready for inquiry.

The minister continued that the facts of the matter must be brought out, the federal government also has no bad intentions, and if someone has done something at the lower level, that thing will also come out clearly.

The FIA cyber wing will continue to work, a new body is being formed, and there should be laws and a new body regarding fake news, there is nothing wrong in it, everybody will continue to do its work.

Federal Interior Minister continued to say that the decision to import wheat is made by the federal government. The Punjab government buys wheat from farmers, not from abroad.

The interior minister further said that the Punjab government had nothing to do with the issue of wheat. In my personal opinion, it was not malicious act.
