LAHORE:Punjab Information Minister Azma Bokhari has announced that the relief on electricity bills has started and this is a great news for the people of Punjab.

She stated that a few days ago, during a press conference, Nawaz Sharif had announced a relief of Rs14 on electricity bills for the people of Punjab, and now it is being officially implemented. Consumers using between 200 to 500 units of electricity will benefit from this relief, she informed.

She said that Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has fulfilled the promise she made to the people of the province. “She is providing relief to the people to the best of her ability. Opponents are engaging in blame games and politics of lies, while Maryam Nawaz is focusing on the politics of service,” Azma maintained.

Azma said despite the country's challenging economic conditions, Maryam Nawaz's mission is to provide as much relief as possible to the people of the province. Other provinces should also focus on serving the people instead of politicising public interest projects. The people of Punjab have given their mandate to Maryam Nawaz and she is living up to their trust, she concluded.
