QUETTA, Jun 08 (APP):Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Abdul Quddus Bizenjo on Thursday took an important initiative of imposition of ban on holding opening ceremonies of development projects. He also instructed that provincial ministers, members of provincial assembly (MPAs) and government officials should avoid holding the foundation stone laying or inauguration ceremony of government projects.
“Public projects are made with public resources, the credit of these projects belongs to no one else, only the people”, he said adding that inauguration of projects of a public nature was a waste of resources and government missionaries.
