LAHORE: Federal Minister for Railways Khawaja Saad Rafique has inaugurated the construction of a road near Walton Railway Station, which will cost Rs100 million.
Addressing the ceremony, the federal minister said that Imran Khan’s demands are illogical as the government cannot dictate Supreme Court for formation of judicial commission to probe into the alleged rigging in general election.
“The government has already written letter to the Supreme Court for the formation of judicial commission but we cannot dictate the apex court,” he said.
Saad Rafique indirectly blamed the ministry of petroleum for fuel crisis, saying that the ministry should arrange the stock keeping in view the demand and supply situation. Four officers have been suspended on shortage of petrol while PM has also directed to hold inquiry in this regard, he added.
He also lauded the improvement in different sections of the railways. The minister said the railways has oil reserves of fourteen days and in past it was not so.
Saad Rafique said that a project of Bab-e-Pakistan would soon be started, adding that play ground, jogging track, state-of-the-art park and monument would also be constructed and all these facilities would attract people.
