LAHORE (92 News) – Dr Hassan Askari on Friday took oath as the Punjab caretaker chief minister at Punjab Governor's House. As per detailed garnered, Punjab Governor Malik Muhammad Rafique Rajwana administered the oath to him. A large number of dignitaries attended the ceremony. In special conversation with 92 News, Hassan Askari assured that he will be removed the PML-N's reservations with his unbiased efficiency.
