CM Maryam Nawaz criticizes opponents while launching new sanitation fleet

Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif once again responded to her critics on Tuesday, saying that instead of being jealous of Punjab’s progress, others should focus on development in their own provinces.

Without naming anyone, she said, “they get furious when I talk about Punjab – but if I don’t speak for Punjab, then who will?”

Maryam Nawaz also unveiled a new sanitation fleet in Punjab during the ceremony. She said, “I salute the heroes of the ‘Suthra Punjab’ program and it is an honour for me to take part in this initiative.”

She proudly added, “Wearing the Suthra Punjab jacket is a matter of pride for me.” Speaking to the workers, she said they had cleaned every corner of the province and made it shine. “I hold my head high with pride,” she said.

The Chief Minister shared that wherever she goes in Punjab, she feels happy to see the clean surroundings. “The cleanliness program is successfully underway across Punjab, even in small towns and villages,” she added.

Maryam Nawaz praised the efforts of ‘Suthra Punjab’ workers, especially in flood-affected areas, saying they performed an excellent job. “The ‘Suthra Punjab’ team has fulfilled my dream and I have never been as happy at any event as I am today,” she said.

Talking about the previous government, she remarked that during the PTI rule, Punjab was filled with garbage and mismanagement. Now, ‘Suthra Punjab’ has a 150,000-strong team and modern machinery operating in every city.

She concluded, “The dream I saw a year ago has now become a reality. Earlier, no one paid attention to cleanliness in villages, but now every village in Punjab is being cleaned. Just as daughters clean and decorate their homes, we have cleaned and beautified our province.”
