ISLAMABAD: Information and Broadcasting Minister Fawad Chaudhry congratulated the farmers and government of Punjab on the highest production of 20 million metric tons of wheat.
The agricultural economy had grown by Rs1,100 billion and this historic development was made possible despite the outbreak of coronavirus pandemic, he said in a statement Wednesday.
âThis development gives an idea of the potential of Pakistanâs agricultural sector,â he remarked. The information minister said the PTI government would always stand by overseas Pakistanis, especially the labour class.
In a tweet Wednesday, Fawad said he was surprised at the letter written by some âformer Baboosâ to the prime minister. He said the attitudes needed to be changed. The treatment given to ordinary people by our bureaucracy was absolutely not enviable, he said, adding, this was a common complaint and Pakistani embassies were not exempt from it.
