Labeling the opposition's all parties' conference (APC) as dejected politicians conference (DPC), the Punjab chief minister Sardar Usman Buzdar Monday said that discarded elements will not gain anything out of it, as the opposition has no public welfare agenda.

"Workless politicians should remember that public acceptability is gained through selfless service of the people and not through political agitation or chaos," the CM said, adding: "The 220 million people of Pakistan have full confidence in the leadership of PM Imran Khan who is bravely countering the internal and external challenges.

In a statement, the Punjab CM reiterated that the PTI-led government is pursuing the public service agenda to develop Pakistan on modern lines. He regretted that the environment was polluted through jumbled infrastructure while the politics were stained with corruption in the previous tenures.

Buzdar expressed the commitment that the government will rid the people of both political as well as environmental pollutions. "The people are facing consequences of the wrong priorities of past rulers; one of major reasons of smog was merciless cutting of hundreds of trees in Lahore," he said, adding: "The incumbent government is successfully implementing the Clean and Green Pakistan programme to promote a green environment in the country."

The CM maintained that various steps have been taken to protect the environment and to increase forests in the province. He said that trees plantation target will be achieved. Comprehensive planning has been made to deal with the hazardous effects of climate change and new programs will be initiated for improving the environment, he said.

Moreover, the CM has extended felicitations to PTI candidate Barrister Sultan Mehmood on winning the by-election of LA-III, Mirpur of Azad Kashmir assembly.

"The success of PTI candidate is a victory of the agenda of change and new Pakistan and it proved that the people fully trust the PTI leadership and its policies," he said, adding: "This result is also writing on the wall for the political parties opposing national development."

The CM said the negative politics of those, who looted national resources in the past tenures, has been buried and this has again proved that the people are supporting a transparent, honest and sincere leadership.
