QUETTA, Dec 18 (APP):Chief Minister (CM) Balochistan, Mir Sarfraz Bugti, approved a series of reform measures in li aimed at improving departmental efficiency, safeguarding public health, and strengthening transparent governance.
One of the key decisions taken was the phased relocation of dairy farms from within Quetta city to areas outside municipal limits. The Chief Minister emphasized that the move is intended to provide citizens with a healthier environment, reduce pollution and traffic congestion, and promote modern urban planning to address environmental and public health challenges.

CM Bugti issued strict instructions that all appointments must be made purely on merit through a transparent process, warning that no political pressure or favoritism would be tolerated.

Highlighting the broader benefits of reforms in the livestock and dairy sector, the Chief Minister noted that improvements would create new employment opportunities across the province.
