The meeting was given a detailed briefing on the progress of the Ramzan relief package, according to which 63 percent of the eligible people have been provided with relief funds, while 2,224 staff members have been assigned to implement the package.
“This relief package is being extended not only to the major cities of Pakistan but also to all the beneficiaries of the country, including Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Kashmir.” He added that the efforts of the State Bank, NADRA, and other concerned institutions to ensure the transparency of the package are commendable.
Shehbaz Sharif directed that a third-party audit of the project be conducted so that transparency could be further improved and this model could be adopted in other government welfare projects.
