The PML-N leader said his party had promised people for the new province as per their aspirations. He said his party’s constitutional resolution was a tough test for the government as if it was sincere in its claim then it should move the bill forward for formation of the province.
Speaker National Assembly Asad Qaiser on January 16 said that steps were being taken to implement the plan to give South Punjab the status of the province and the people of South Punjab would be soon given good tidings.
He expressed these views while talking to members of the National Assembly belonging to Multan and Dera Ghazi Khan divisions who met him in Islamabad.
