Elements threatening govt officers will be dealt with an iron hand: Punjab CM Usman Buzdar

LAHORE (92 News) – Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar has said that threatening the government officers is an illegal act which will not be tolerated.

In a statement on Saturday, he further stated that the government will not sit quietly if someone threatens the officers and such elements will be dealt with iron hands besides taking legal action against them.

Usman Buzdar said that opposition leaders, upon the exposure of their corruption, are levelling false allegations against the government officers. "The opposition’s statement about government officials is highly regrettable and condemnable."

He said that no government official will accept the pressure of corrupt gangs. "The government is standing with honest and hardworking government officials. If anyone has a complaint about the rules and regulations, then one should adopt legal way. Time has passed when desirable results can be achieved by harassing government officers, now work is done on merit," he concluded.
