Special Assistant to the Chief Minister Punjab on Information, Tourism, PHAs and Spokesperson to the Punjab Government Hasaan Khawar has said that PHA has initiated “Plant for Pakistan” campaign on the instructions of Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar.
Under the campaign, PHA will meet the target of planting more than 300,000 native plants, of which about 100,000 will be distributed among the people free of cost.
He said that after the successful completion of “One Billion Tree Tsunami”, the journey of planting ten billion trees across the country is in full swing in line with the vision of Prime Minister Imran Khan.
Our goal is to make our cities, villages and streets clean and green so that our future generations can breathe in a clean and healthy environment, SACM maintained.
These views were expressed by Hasaan Khawar while talking to media at Liberty Chowk Lahore on Friday after distributing free plants among the citizens under “Plant for Pakistan” campaign. On this occasion, he said that PHA teams are participating in this campaign with utmost zeal and zest so that PHA Lahore can be made a role model for the whole country as per the directions of Chief Minister Punjab.
Special Assistant to Chief Minister Punjab further that the government is committed to shifting 30 percent of vehicles to electric and 60 percent energy production to renewable resources by 2030. He further said that the government has so far planted 53 Miyawaki forests across Punjab, including the world’s largest Miyawaki forest at Saghian in Lahore. “Our mission is to eliminate air as well as political pollution from the country” he said.
Talking about ongoing political situation in the country, he said that at present Asif Zardari is the producer of this political film while Maulana Fazal Ur Rehman is eyeing the lead role which seems impossible.
He further said that Asif Ali Zardari has formally started his election campaign. Bilawal Zardari is preparing for the fireworks after the victory but the people will see that their plans will turn to ashes.
The SACM said that developed countries around the world are also being affected by inflation and high prices of commodities. In such a tough economic landscape, Prime Minister Imran Khan has shared the pain of the weaker sections by announcing a historic relief package, he concluded.
