PM reaffirms govt’s commitment to boost agriculture production

Islamabad: Prime Minister Imran Khan Thursday reaffirmed government's commitment to bolster production of agriculture products in order to meet the requirements of growing population.

The Premier was addressing a ceremony in Dera Ismail Khan in connection with distribution of Kisan Cards amongst the farmers and inauguration of Command Area of Gomal Zam Dam and Pakistan Agriculture Research Council's Arid Research Stations.

“We have done all the planning to locally produce all the essential items including pulses and palm oil.  For this purpose, barren areas will be brought under cultivation besides ensuring better management of water and promoting research in the agriculture field,” Khan said.

Imran Khan was confident that Pakistan especially Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) will witness revolution in olive production.

“Pakistan has the most suitable land for olive cultivation and it will be able to export it to earn foreign exchange,” he added.

Imran Khan also pointed out that it is the first time that work has been started on construction of ten dams which will significantly enhance the water storage capacity.

“The government is also focusing on primary education and primary health care system to check the population growth,” stated Imran.

“We have waged a struggle for rule of law in the country in which they will succeed,” he said.

Khan further added that it is important to follow the principles of State of Madina to become a great nation.

“We need to learn from the life and teachings of Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) to bring improvement in our life,” advised Premier.
