LAHORE:
Parliamentary Secretary Malik Taimoor Masood appeared to be struggling for words in Punjab Assembly on Tuesday as Speaker Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi asked what the government had done till now for installing water filtration plants across the province.
Taimoor was responding to questions of lawmakers about unavailability of clean drinking water and installation of filtration plants in different districts.
At one stage, members from both the treasury and opposition benches seemed confused over whether the governor was the patron in chief of Punjab Ab-e-Pak Authority. Both sides were at loggerheads after a PML-N member questioned the performance of the authority.
