‘South Punjab Secretariat a step towards provincial status’
Last week, Special Assistant to Chief Minister Punjab on Information Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan had said the government is giving rights to the people of South Punjab at their doorstep.
She said the South Punjab Secretariat is an important development towards the South Punjab province as it would usher in a new era of development.
