O Gentlemen, clean your district from corrupt officials and criminals. The police are also sacrificing but there are also black sheep.
I am with the police, I stand behind the force, that's why I wear uniform and show solidarity. More than 50% reduction in robbery incidents in Lahore is welcome, the hanging of salaried workers is not only sad but also shameful. They are providing full resources to the police so that the performance does not decrease. Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz further said that they are bringing a performance analysis and evaluation system in the police to eliminate corruption.
14 special check posts are being set up to stop inter-provincial smuggling, vehicles, equipment, weapons, training and every demand of the police is being met. I appreciate IG, RP Osargodha and DPO for rescuing 10 persons from the mob and evacuating them safely. RPO Sheikhupura has given a deadline to control the incidents of dacoity, the operation should be continued on a regular basis for dealing with drugs, the police should take effective measures to prevent the incidents of aerial firing.
Blocking the road in the presence of a traffic warden is very sad, the lane should be restricted to motorbike riders. Effective action should be taken on DG Khan model to solve electricity theft across the province. If electricity theft ends, load shedding will also become zero.
