Govt to provide maximum relief to masses in budget: Marriyum
The federal minister for information and broadcasting says massive programmes have been earmarked for farmers, IT and export sectors as well as the youth.
Islamabad: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb on Wednesday said that the coalition government was committed to providing maximum relief to the people in the upcoming budget.
Addressing a news conference in Islamabad on Wednesday, she said massive programmes have been earmarked for farmers, IT and export sectors as well as the youth.
The Minister said passing dividends of the reduced oil prices on the common people is Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s top agenda. She said the Prime Minister is holding consultative meetings with different stakeholders and other key segments of society in this regard.
Marriyum Aurangzeb said the coalition government is striving hard to put the economy on the path of stability and growth, but the dream of economic stability remains elusive without having political stability in the country.
She said an anti-state mindset nurtured by the PTI and its Chief has not only brought political instability to the country but also ruined Pakistan’s economy. She said these anti-state forces are callously hell-bent to harm Pakistan’s interests.
